Recent Social Trends in Quebec, 1960-1990, 1

By Baillargeon and Simon Langlois

Readers will follow an intense period of social change in Quebec, during which there was a remarkable increase in the level of modernization. They will note a massive entry of women into the labour force and a growing service sector that now constitutes seventy percent of all economic activity. They will observe also that the Qu b cois have dramatically increased their television viewing and that, while they express a generally high level of satisfaction with life, the Qu b cois must contend with escalating crime and suicide rates.
