Tossup
One event that precipitated this historical period was a four-month labor dispute between miners and the Denver-based Johns-Manville Company. Reforms during this period were influenced by an educational treatise called The Impertinences of Brother Anonymous. A party elected at the start of this period used the slogan “now or never / masters in our own house.” Politicians dubbed the “three wise men” covered an event that laid the groundwork for this period, the Asbestos strike, in the newspaper Le Devoir (“luh duv-WAHR”). This period countered the preceding “Great Darkness,” during which religious conservatism was enacted by Maurice Duplessis (“doo-pleh-SEE”). For 10 points, the 1960 election of Jean Lesage (“luh-SAHZH”) has traditionally been considered the start of what period of upheaval and social restructuring in Quebec? ■END■
