Comments Godin made later in life, however, suggested that he supported terrorism. In 1988 on the joint Public Broadcasting Service/National Film Board production Canada: True North Mr. Godin is filmed saying: “Only bombs, in fact, were the ideal communication process to convince the English that we were after something important.”

This is a logical fallacy. The comments of Godin do not, in fact, suggest that he supported terrorism. Gérald Godin was only expressing a view that was common at the time, that whatever we may think of the FLQ's use of violence (be for or against it), it is following the group's actions that what many Quebecers had been saying for many many years was taken seriously by people in the circles of power in Ottawa and Quebec City. That is a common thesis based on the observation of the series of political events of the time and is perfectly legitimate. Whatever people may think of the thesis, it remains that there is nothing is his comment suggesting that he supported terrorism. So this paragraph should be removed. -- Mathieugp 22:44, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
