 The Gaullist Attack on Canada, 1967-1997 - Questia Online Library
J.F. Bosher argues that the motivation behind all these incidents was a policy of underhanded imperial ambition on the part of France.In The Gaullist Attack on Canada he contends that behind the screen of harmless fraternizing of international francophonie, French nationalists have been at work to stimulate French revolutionary nationalism in Quebec and elsewhere.
He argues that the Gaullist ideology behind these attempts rests on a set of myths about past events, age-old resentment of the English‐ speaking nations, and a deep-rooted belief in the superiority of France, its language, and its culture.
Bosher argues that, even now, by standing up to French aggression the government might weaken the separatist movement in Quebec, or at least turn the tide of political support for it.

 H-Net Review: Timothy G. Pearson on Chasing Empire across the Sea: Communications and the State in the French Atlantic, ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
At its most fundamental level, it is a book about knowledge in the French Atlantic world of the early-eighteenth century--about its generation and dissemination, about the uses to which it was put by colonial administrators, and about communicating it to those who needed to know while preventing its broadcast to those who did not.
The primary function of colonial administration in Paris and overseas, argues Banks, was to gather and disseminate massive amounts of information about Canada, Louisiana and the Îles de Vent, so that despite the many obstacles to this process, the empire kept chugging along.
His research is broad, concentrating on letter correspondence primarily in French Archives, but also in archives in Canada and the United States.
