Education

Ages 14 to 17
School subjects
This film offers an overview of the Acadian rights movement of the late 1960s and 1970s. Are there parallels between the struggles of Acadians and Quebecers? Why did the Acadian rights movement originate with university students? What are the students' demands? What are the sources of the conflict that breaks out between students and the government? Teachers can place the film in the context of the history of Acadia, creating a timeline of the evolution of Acadian rights, working back from the present. Ideal for history classes.
