One Great History

One Great 150 - Georges Forest


Listen Later

In 1976, a man got a parking ticket in Saint Boniface. The events that followed would challenge the foundations of Manitoba's laws, and the tolerance of Manitobans for their neighbours. In this episode we discuss Georges Forest and his quest for francophone rights.

Thank you to Raymond Hébert and Roger Bilodeau for their input on this episode, and to Annie Langlois for her great archival finds!
