This book, first published in 1978, maintains that there is a clear answer to its eponymous question, perennially voiced by English-speaking Canadians. In this lucid and objective account, Andre Bernard examines both historical precedent and current attitudes to show that French-speaking Quebeckers share a body of beliefs and goals that transcend their partisan differences. He finds a high degree of consensus about the need for cultural survival, economic improvement and greater control of the levers of power. What Does Quebec Want? remains a valuable record of the consolidation of the Quiet Revolution in the late 1970s.
