- Abstract
This article underlines the contribution of the Francophonie towards the dismantlement of the French Canadian national project between the 1950s and the 1980s. The author recognizes that the French Canadian continental project was progressively eroded by the slowing of migrations outside Quebec, the increasing interventions of the State, Quebec neonationalism, and the renewal of federalism, but also suggests that the emerging Francophonie project, during these years, also had an impact on the minds of French Canadians. The Richelieu movement's evolution constitutes a perfect example of this tendency. Its transformation from a French Canadian to a Francophone and international movement the late 1960s shows the way in which this new level of solidarity brought various individuals on different continents to rally towards and identify with what was considered "francophone", to the detriment of a more restrictive national project such as French Canada.
