Yes.
In Quebec We had the October crisis back in the 1960’s to the 1970s. The FLQ murdered Pierre LaPorte and kidnapped UK diplomat James Cross. They murdered several other people and made over 150 attacks including bombings around Montreal
They wanted to get rid of the English colonial oppression in Quebec.
It put the city of Montreal in a lot of unrest for several years. We had soldiers with guns, patrolling our streets and on our sidewalks.
It’s the main reason my parents and many other Anglophones left Quebec in the 1970’s
We were at a restaurant down near Chinatown downtown Montreal with my dad’s work party. Well, it was a work dinner and some people brought their families. The police came in and said that a 7 PM curfew had been imposed and everyone had to leave right away and go home and stay in their homes for the night. They started bombing the streets and my parents ran out of there with us went home. That was the last straw for my mother and years after that that we left Quebec and moved to Ontario.
