History

Answer:

The Quiet Revolution is a time of intense, rapid social and political change experienced in Québec, Canada in the 1960s.

Explanation:

This revolution saw the efforts made by Jean Lesage's Liberal Government and Robert Bourassa at times. The changes brought about had a profound effect. Since the 1960s, most provincial governments have emplaced the core concepts developed and implemented during the revolution. During that period, the provincial government took direct control over healthcare and education arenas. The Ministries of Health and Education were formed. The government also expanded public service, made huge investments in provincial infrastructure and the public education system and allowed unionization of the civil service. Further, it took steps to enhance Québécois control over the province's economy and nationalize electricity production and distribution. Hydro-Québec was formed to nationalize Québec's electric companies. The government established the Canada/Québec Pension Plan. The Quiet Revolution was a byproduct of Canada's 20-year post-war expansion. It was also a consequence of Québec's position to be the leading province for more than a century before and after Confederation. These changes also extended beyond Québec's borders due to their influence on contemporary Canadian politics.
