She was the vice president of the Rassemblement pour l'indépendance nationale (RIN), a Quebec independence movement and later political party of the 1960s.
[citation needed] She was a member of the Mouvement de Libération Populaire, and when it disbanded joined the Rassemblement pour l'indépendance nationale[1] and became its vice-president.
Ferretti argued that Quebec was "in a mortal struggle against all who contribute to our exploitation, whether they be American Imperialists, Canadian capitalists or the French-Canadian bourgeoisie.
"[1] After a confrontation with then-president of the RIN Pierre Bourgault,[2] she resigned from the party [3] and founded the short-lived Front de libération populaire (FLP) in March 1968.
Bourgault asked his followers to join René Lévesque's then-fledgling Parti Québécois using entryism, thus uniting the indépendantiste forces.
