Question 1 of 33
Where did the Idle No More movement originate?
The Idle No More movement was born in Western Canada in the fall of 2012 when four Indigenous women publicly expressed their anger over the introduction of Bill C-45 by the federal government. The protest marches and rallies organized by these women marked the beginning of a mobilization in major cities across Canada. Widia Larivière and Mélissa Mollen-Dupuis co-founded the Québec branch of Idle No More.
