Title
Celebrating 40 Years
Abstract
The year was 1980 and the world was undergoing massive change. CNN launched, the Rubik’s cube went on sale and the Iran-Iraq war began. Closer to home, Quebecers voted in a sovereignty referendum to remain part of Canada, while the sports scene saw the Montreal Canadiens fail in their quest for a fifth consecutive Stanley Cup. But something else historic was also brewing in the province that year: Laubach Literacy Canada-Quebec (LLC-Q), the forerunner of Literacy Volunteers of Quebec, now known as Literacy Quebec.
