Quebec and the threat of separation, a continuing issue for a multi-cultural Canada. One dramatic flare-up, the Montreal riots - cars overturned; trash baskets set alight; store windows broken, and millions of dollars of damage committed - provides an interesting vehicle to examine Quebec unrest. Rocket Richard's suspension and the loss of a hockey game symbolized the deep sense of inequality and injustice felt by many French Canadians, and four Quebec seniors recall the feelings leading up to, and the events of that dramatic day.
