Gérard Pelletier

Gérard Pelletier was a notable Canadian journalist and politician who became a significant voice in Quebec's political scene. He served as one of the 'three wise men from the East' appointed by Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson to strengthen the federal government's ties with Quebec during a period of rising separatist sentiment. Pelletier's work as a journalist and his intellectual contributions helped elevate the discourse around Canadian federalism and the importance of Quebec within it.
