SIXTIES STUDENTS McGill (1): Serve the People in a New Quebec

Students at McGill University in Montreal built one of the most advanced student movements in Canada in the 1960s. The key conflict was over whether or not McGill would change itself to serve the interests of the French-language majority, and not just the English language minority, in a new Quebec.. In 1964-65 there were major protests over the Vietnam war, African-American civil rights in Selma and opposition to a fees increase.
