He became premier of Quebec after winning the 1960 election with the slogan Maîtres chez nous (masters in our own house). Lesage's victory brought to an end the long reign of the conservative Union Nationale party that had governed Quebec since 1944 under the leadership of Maurice Duplessis (until 1959). Lesage's election campaign ushered the Quiet Revolution, which began to change the traditional domination of Quebec's economy by English-speaking Canadians, and the traditional domination of the public lives of French-speaking Quebeckers by the Catholic Church was replaced by a larger role for the government of Quebec. The Quebec general election on June 22, 1960 was one of the most significant elections in Quebec history, rivaled perhaps only by the 1976 general election. ... Union Nationale logo. ...
