Summary:
"This translation into English of Alain Dubuc's bestseller, Portrait de famille, is an explosive critique that
questions
the vitality of both
Québec
and the entirety of Canada over the long term. Arguing that the Québécois see themselves through a set of homemade myths developing out of the Quiet Revolution. Dubuc sets
about
analyzing to what extend extent these myths
are
true. How does Quebec really stack up culturally, economically and educationally - especially in relation to the other provinces and on the global stage? Many of the hard facts and statistics gathered
are
eye-opening for us all.
Québec
and Canada itself
are
doing pretty well, Dubuc says, but an economic and social crisis is looming and strong action is needed. Certainly, La Presse's editorial writer Alain Dubuc knows how to puncture a balloon with the best of them."? -- Back cover
