<P> The Quiet Revolution ( French : Révolution tranquille ) was a period of intense socio - political and socio - cultural change in the Canadian province of Quebec , characterized by the effective secularization of government , the creation of a welfare state ( état - providence ) , and realignment of politics into federalist and sovereignist factions and the eventual election of a pro-sovereignty provincial government in the 1976 election . The Quiet Revolution typically refers to the efforts made by the Liberal governments of Jean Lesage ( elected in 1960 ) and Robert Bourassa ( elected in 1970 ) , though given the profound effect of the changes , most provincial governments since the early 1960s have maintained an orientation based on core concepts developed and implemented in that era . </P>
