Abstract
Employing information gathered chiefly from the archives of France's Ministère des Affaires Étrangères (MAE), this article examines official French perceptions of the October Crisis, and how these were influenced by evolving attitudes in Paris regarding Quebec and Canada. It is argued that French official perceptions of the October Crisis were shaped foremost by a belief that arose in the 1960s among elements in the French political class that Quebec was evolving toward some form of international sovereignty. The October Crisis, thus, was perceived in French circles as a manifestation of Quebec's larger political evolution; Ottawa's hard-line response was seen as misguided and ultimately exacerbating the crisis, and as consistent with federalist resistance to Quebec épanouissement. These French perceptions were reinforced by the invocation of the War Measures Act. The result was a rather ambiguous response from Paris that condemned FLQ actions out of a general opposition to political violence, but that was tempered by a concern that the reaction of Canadian and Quebec authorities, notably the former, not be permitted to interfere with the French view of the Québécois interest. À partir d'informations recueillies principalement aux archives du ministére français des Affaires étrangères (MAE), cette étude examine les perceptions françaises officielles concernant la Crise d'octobre, et la manière dont ces perceptions ont été influencées par l'attitude qu'a adoptée Paris à l'égard du Québec et du Canada. Cet article soutient que les perceptions françaises officielles concernant la Crise d'octobre ont avant tout été influencées par une conviction, parmi certains membres de la classe politique française dans les années 60, que le Québec s'acheminait vers une forme de souveraineté internationale. Ainsi, dans les milieux français, la Crise d'octobre a été perçue comme une manifestation de l'évolution politique générale du Québec; la réaction intransigeante d'Ottawa a été perçue comme une erreur qui avait contribué à l'aggravation de la crise et qui illustrait l'opposition fédéraliste à l'épanouissement du Québec. Ces perceptions n'ont été que renforcées par le décret de la Loi des mesures de guerre. Il en a résulté une réponse plutôt équivoque de la France, qui a condamné les actes du FLQ par opposition à toute violence politique, mais dont la condamnation a été tempérée du fait qu'elle ne voulait pas que la réaction des autorités québécoises et, surtout, canadiennes contrarie les intérêts québécois tels que les concevaient les Français.
