How To Kill Quebec Separatism
Article by journalist and Englishrights activist William Johnson.
http://www.vigile.net/00-12/bill-kill.html

Extractions: It's time to give Quebec separatism the . It can be done. What's needed is the nerve, the vision, the political will. The separatist leaders are now in disarray. Last week's election results in Quebec were the culmination of a bad year for separatism. And yesterday, a personal blow landed on Lucien Bouchard: The editor of the closest thing to a separatist house organ, Michel Venne of Le Devoir, questioned the Premier's commitment to the sacred cause. "If Mr. Bouchard no longer believes in sovereignty, let him say so. . . . Let others take up the cause. As long as he does not commit his government to a process [preparing for sovereignty], no one will believe any more in his incantations. His calls to mobilize will remain a dead letter. And his speeches will only bore us." The RIQ claims not to oppose the PQ, but to help by whipping up public support for secession. But it proposes dropping the PQ's commitment to offering a partnership with Canada in the aftermath of secession. This choice of full independence embarrasses the PQ, whose leaders notably Mr. Bouchard believe that only sovereignty accompanied by a partnership offer can ever be saleable. True believers are convinced that secession can be won by talking it up constantly, by harnessing the government's powers to its promotion, and by funding committed non-governmental groups. But that assumption is naive, and an attempt to implement it could backfire.

In 1642 Paul Chomedey, Sieur de Maisonneuve, landed with a group of French colonists at what is now During the French and English War, the armies of British Major General James Wolfe attacked Québec City on September 13, 1759 and defeated the French troops of Commander Louis Joseph de Montcalm. This Battle of the Plains of Abraham, in which both generals lost their lives, altered the destiny of New France. Four years later, under the Treaty of Paris, the King of France granted to "His Royal Majesty, the sole ownership of Canada and all its dependencies." This transfer of power and territory from France to England sparked a flood of new colonists from England, Ireland and Scotland. cities , and the process of urbanization accelerated. By 1830, Montréal - the "Paris of the North"- had become Canada's major industrial center, welcoming waves of European immigrants fleeing war and misery in their homelands. In 1959, the St. Lawrence Seaway opened Montréal up to the world, and in 1967, the world came to Montréal. The Expo 67 World's Fair highlighted the culmination of Québec's "Quiet Revolution," a period marked by a resurgence of pride in Québec's French cultural heritage, a lessening of the influence of the Catholic Church and a determination to assert Québec's place among modern nations of the world.
Quebec North Shore & Labrador Railway
Travelogue and photos from riding the QNSL from Labrador City to Sept les.
http://www.billwood.com/trains/qnsl/

Extractions: Logistics, aside, however, the ride was great, not least because of an ancient but thorougly serviceable Pullman Standard dome car at the rear of the train. The pictures below speak for themselves; the scenery and views are, in my opinion, the match of the Alaska railroad. Except for the fact that very few rail buffs seem to be aware that this route exists, much less that there is scheduled passenger service available! Around the Railroad Station in Labrador City They actually sell tickets at this station, unlike the station in Sept Îles where you are directed to a nearby (?) travel agent for the purchase of transportation. The car carrier can be seen in one of the pictures. I was told there are no height restrictions, but don't expect to be able to put your car on the train if you've got a canoe (or other moveable object) strapped onto your roof.

Extractions: Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... L > Laval University of Quebec A B C D ... CICDC - Home of the Catholic Lifetime Reading Plan The University of Laval was founded in 1852 by the Seminary of Quebec; the royal charter granted to it by Queen Victoria was signed at Westminster, 8 December, 1852. By the Bull "Inter varias sollicitudines", 15 April, 1876, Pius IX completed the university by according it canonical erection together with the most extensive privileges. In virtue of this Bull the university has as its protector at Rome the Cardinal Prefect of Propaganda. The control of doctrine and discipline devolves upon a superior council composed of the archbishop and bishops of the Province of Quebec, under the presidency of the Archbishop of Quebec, who is himself chancellor of the university. By the terms of the royal charter the Visitor of the Laval University is always the Catholic Archbishop of Quebec, who has the right of veto in regard to all regulations and appointments. This shows in what a broad spirit the English Government permits the Catholic French Canadians, without other supervision than that of an archbishop Conformably to a decision of the Sacred Congregation of Propaganda, dated 1 February, 1876, an extension of the faculties of the university was made in favour of Montreal, the

No. 220: Quebec Bridge Failure
Short overview of the quebec Bridge failures, with audio file of narrative.
http://www.uh.edu/engines/epi220.htm

Extractions: by John H. Lienhard Click here for audio of Episode 220. Today, a bridge collapses, and we ask why. The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. I' m looking at two photographs, both taken in late August, 1907. In one, a great cantilever structure extends almost 900 feet from its pier half a huge bridge over the St. Lawrence River 40 million pounds of structural steel reaching toward Quebec. The second photograph is not so pretty. It shows 40 million pounds of what looks like wet spaghetti, splashed across the ground, leading away from the pier and off into the water. For eight years the Quebec bridge project had been under the direction of an American engineer. He was Theodore Cooper, the biggest name in bridge building. Cooper had never produced a true superlative, and his first move was to extend the span from 1600 to 1800 feet. That got the piers out of the water and on to dry land. But it also made this the largest cantilever span ever attempted. The contract was let to the Phoenix Bridge Company. And soon many factors were gnawing at the design's integrity. The Company lacked funds for preliminary design and testing. Cooper's health was poor, and he limited his travel to the site. But maybe the largest problem was that he was just too highly regarded.
