Human Rights

[edit]

Neither homosexuality nor liberal divorce laws qualify as Human Rights so to say people admired Trudeau for his Human Rights stances is something of a misnomer. I'm thinking I'll change it, not sure to what yet. - Schrandit (talk) 17:21, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe liberalising the divorce laws doesn't count, through it was extremely difficult to get a divorce in Canada before 1967. I will to disagree you with legalising homosexuality. Up to 1967, gay Canadians were sent to prison if they were caught having sex, and were not officially allowed to work for the government. This article should cut back on the fan-like tone a bit-one it should say is that Trudeau was liked in English Canada because here was a French-Canadian who was a committed federalist at a time when the Quiet Revolution was causing much worry in English-Canada. There was considerable concern at the time that Quebec might separate in the near-future, and Trudeau was widely viewed in 1968 as the best man for "handling" Quebec. The choice of terminology here is very revealing. --A.S. Brown (talk) 22:51, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
