As a Minister in the Canadian Embassy in Paris, Eldon Black witnessed a range of fateful events - from visits (successful and unsuccessful) of ministers and prime ministers between Ottawa, Quebec City and Paris, to meetings at the Elysée palace, and exchanges of a myriad of telegrams, notes and other diplomatic correspondence. This well-researched account of French interference in Canadian constitutional and federal-provincial affairs includes criticism of Quebec's involvement, and of how Embassy staff in Paris and the Canadian government in Ottawa strove to control and normalize relations among the contending parties. Central to the national unity debate of the day, the ensuing diplomatic wrangles and political conflicts have a curiously contemporary ring, even reverberating into Canada's future. 410 0$aCarleton library series ;$v187. 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / General$2bisacsh 607 $aCanada$xForeign relations$zFrance 607 $aFrance$xForeign relations$zCanada 607 $aCanada$xForeign relations$y1945- 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / General. 676 $a327.71044 700 $aBlack$b Eldon$f1925-$01483152 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790436803321 996 $aDirect intervention$93701152 997 $aUNINA
