    Left History 12_2x6:12.2 1/28/08 11:17 AM Page 184 184 Book Reviews the author himself, most notably a naked shouting match with a former Ontario Premier in the Glendon College gym (oddly, not the one who recently skinny-dipped with CBC comedian Rick Mercer). As a contribution to Canadian political and intel- lectual history, and as a commentary on public engagement by intellectuals, The Teeth of Time is a valuable, and often entertaining, addition to the literature. Matthew Hayday University of Guelph William Tetley, The October Crisis, 1970: An Insider’s View (Montreal & Kingston, McGill-Queen’s University Press, 2007). Before opening the book, my initial reaction was, “Not another book on the 1970 October Crisis!” There is a sense that so much has been written on this tragic event and if someone decides to publish a book on this, he has something new to reveal. Unfortunately this book does not bring a new perspective on this event that cap- tured Canadians’ attention in 1970. Even the author seems to have anticipated my reaction and those of others since he devoted a portion of his introduction to a jus- tification for the publication of another book on the October Crisis. I have to confess that I expected a lot from this book since the author was a member of Premier Robert Bourassa’s cabinet. At that time, he was Minister of Financial Institutions. Although William Tetley warns his readers that his book is “not a work of history … it is a commentary on a particular event …” (XXV), I was disappointed because the book does not contain many new elements that would make this a must read.

  • The October Crisis Appendix Z the Place of the Crisis in Quebec and Canadian History
    1 The October Crisis Appendix Z The Place of the Crisis in Quebec and Canadian History “L’histoire n’est que le tableau des crimes et des malheurs.” (Voltaire, 1694-1778) “History is bunk.” (Henry Ford, 1863-1947) “Some historians are adverse to explicit explanation, instead preferring to ‘let the facts speak for themselves.’ Others will elaborate a preferred explanation, but they rarely set contending explanations against one another, as one must to fully evaluate an explanation. Historians are also (with some exceptions) generally averse to writing evaluative history. However, without explanatory historical work, history is never explained; and without evaluative historical work we learn little from the past about present and future problem-solving.” (Stephen Van Evera, 1997 at p. 93) An Evauative History -Action and Reaction I am not an historian and do not attempt to write history in this text. That is left to professional historians. Rather I have attempted, as an ex-politician, to evaluate the evolution of French-Canadian nationalism, from the founding of Quebec in 1608 to the present day. To do so, I have arbitrarily divided the saga into eighteen major stages and in each stage I have described 2 what happened (“the action”) and what resulted (“the reaction”). This evaluative style at least has the merit of being in the briefest of terms and is the first specific positioning of the October Crisis in Canadian history, to my knowledge, albeit by a biased, ex-politician. The action/reaction methodology may also be surprising, although, I now understand that Karl Marx and others used it.

The Democrats were sharply defeated, losing the House of Representatives, but not as catastrophically as was predicted earlier in the summer. And, they retained control of the Senate, saving their vulnerable majority leader Harry Reid.
