This article wishes to broaden understanding of the repercussions of this crisis outside the borders of the francophone province by looking at the events that shook academic institutions in the Canadian Prairies and the reactions of the student youth that drove them. Based on analysis of student newspapers from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta, it attests to the turmoil on university campuses in the months following the implementation of the War Measures Act, when demonstrations, petitions, teach-ins, and intellectual exchanges followed one another. This analysis sheds light on a certain dichotomy of opinions in the West. While Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau was strongly criticized for his official language policy and his economic centralism by the people and governments, a lull occurred with the October events, whose management by the federal government was welcomed. Student newspapers offered another perspective, that of an engaged youth sensitive to the issues of Quebec, trying to show the perverse effects of this War Measures Act, deemed liberticidal, hostile to radical discourse, and affecting the entire country. In revisiting this era, this article also explores the student journalistic style of the era-- a style that sought to be on the fringes of mainstream media, seen as biased in its treatment of Quebec and of separatist movements. In the eyes of certain students, the liberation of Quebec could lead only to the liberation of Canada. L'histoire de la crise d'Octobre a souvent été analysée à travers le prisme du Québec. Cet article souhaite élargir la compréhension des répercussions de cette crise à l'extérieur des frontières de la province francophone en s'intéressant aux événements qui secouent les établissements universitaires des Prairies canadiennes et les réactions de la jeunesse étudiante qui les anime. En se basant sur l'analyse de trois journaux étudiants du Manitoba, de la Saskatchewan et de l'Alberta, il témoigne de l'ébullition qui caractérise les campus universitaires dans les mois suivant la mise en place de la Loi sur les mesures de guerre, où manifestations, pétitions, journées d'éducation populaire (teach-ins) et échanges intellectuels se succèdent. Cette analyse met en lumière une certaine dichotomie présente dans l'Ouest. Alors que le premier ministre canadien Pierre Elliott Trudeau y était vertement critiqué pour sa politique des langues officielles et son centralisme en matière d'économie par la population et les gouvernements, une accalmie survient avec les événements d'octobre, dont la gestion par le gouvernement fédéral est saluée. Les journaux étudiants offrent un autre regard, celui d'une jeunesse engagée sensible aux enjeux du Québec, tentant de montrer les effets pervers de cette Loi sur les mesures de guerre jugée liberticide qui s'attaque aux discours radicaux et qui a des retombées sur l'ensemble du pays. En restituant ce moment, c'est aussi le style journalistique étudiant de l'époque qui se manifeste, un style qui se veut dans les marges des grands médias, critiqués pour leur traitement biaisé du Québec et des mouvements indépendantistes. Aux yeux de certains étudiants et étudiantes, la libération du Québec ne peut mener qu'à la libération du Canada. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: French refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Canadian Historical Review is the property of University of Toronto Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
