Book
Is this who we are? : 14 questions about Québec / Alain Dubuc ; translator Nigel Spencer.
"This translation into English of Alain Dubuc’s Portrait de famille is an explosive critique that questions the viability of both Québec and the entirety of Canada over the long term. Arguing that the Québécois see themselves through a set of homemade myths developing out of the Quiet Revolution, Dubuc sets about analyzing to what extent these myths are true. How does Québec really stack up culturally, educationally and economically—especially in relation to the other provinces and on the global stage? Many of the hard facts and statistics gathered are eye-opening for us all: Quebec and Canada itself are doing pretty well, Dubuc says, but an economic and social crisis is looming and strong action is needed. Certainly, La Presse’s editorial writer Alain Dubuc knows how to puncture a balloon with the best of them."-- Publisher's description
