General strike in Québec in 1972
The 1972 Québec general strike was a general strike that took place in Québec in 1972. The strike began on 11 April and lasted until 21 April, when the government of Québec banned the workers from striking and imprisoned the leaders of the three unions, as well as several dozen union organisers. With around 300 000 workers participating, it was one of the largest strikes in North American history.
