Mr. Gagnon recognized the "‘quiet revolution‘" which is takâ€" ing place in Quebec. Its objectâ€" ives, he said are to become as wealthy, intellecturally, aesthetâ€" ically, and physically as the rest of the "outside world."

Mr. Prudhomme, one of Canâ€" ada‘s younger MPs, speaking in Dr. Careless‘ stand was that there are two Canada‘s,. culturâ€" ally; but only one, politically. He feels that one Canada, politicalâ€" ly was an obvious fact because of the futility of thinking of ever removing the English or the French sectors. These two sectâ€" ors are, in his opinion, what make us a nation distinct from the United States. ing the problem is one of "‘decâ€" entralization" of power.

Mr. Prudhomme stressed the role of the youth in the resolvâ€" ing of Canada‘s problems. His feeling was, "the youth could agree if we want to sit together and discuss it." He severely criticized the press for its sensationalism in the handling of the problems in French Canada, stating that 10 per cent of the people were making 90 per cent of the news. a more emotional manner, statâ€" ed that he was proud of his country and that he enjoyed beâ€" ing a Canadian because "it is a challenge."
