1 mar 1963 año - FLQ Founded

Descripción:

The FLQ is founded by two Quebecers, Raymond Villeneuve and Gabriel Hudon, and a Belgian, Georges Schoeters, who had fought with the resistance during the Second World War. Their thinking — and their membership — is shaped by the more radical elements of other independence movements in Quebec. These include the Rassemblement pour l’indépendance nationale (RIN, founded in 1960); the Comité de libération nationale (founded in 1962), which promoted violence to achieve political ends; and the Réseau de résistance (RR, also founded in 1962), which believed in protesting through vandalism. The FLQ is also influenced by anti-colonial and communist movements in other parts of the world, notably Algeria and Cuba.
