Out of the ashes of two Quebec referendums on independence and 30 years of restrictive language laws, emerged a Canadian counter revolution in the province of Quebec in the 1990s. The Angryphone movement. Filmmaker Jimmy K sits down and speaks with the prominent players of this Angryphone movement and others. Topics of discussion: the Quebec language laws and language police; the mass Quebec exodus; the two Quebec referendums; the lead up to the Clarity Act and various Canadian civil and language rights events, boycotts and protests.
