René Lévesque

Levesque learns that producers at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation are on strike to push for unionization, placing his career in the middle of a political maelstrom.

As a newly elected Minister, Levesque immediately goes to work against corruption, but towards efforts to nationalize electricity, facing strong headwinds in the process.

Levesque increasingly finds himself at odds with Lesage, and by the Liberal Convention of 1967, Levesque is forced to make a momentous decision.

A victory for Rene Levesque in the 1976 Quebec general election would make him Premier of Quebec and open a new door for Quebec's, and Canada's, future; the main question is where the spirit of the people rests.

Progress is stunted after the referendum fails to gain majority support, leaving Parti Quebecois to negotiate a path forward; the true depth of the obstacles that stand before them have only just begun to reveal themselves.
