Judith Jasmin

It was there she met future Quebec premier René Lévesque with whom she would go on to co-host the radio program Carrefour.

In 1953, Jasmin entered Radio-Canada's television news service where she made a name for herself with such programs as Reportages and Conférence de presse.

She was a founding member of the Mouvement laïque de langue française ("The Francophone Secular Movement").

She spent the next few years of her life abroad, meeting seminal figures of the time and sharing her experiences with the Quebec public.

Despite the many obstacles she faced throughout the course of her career, Jasmin's talent and determination allowed her to join the ranks of the great Quebec journalists.
