Ralliement national (RN) (in English: "National Rally") was a separatist[1] and right-wing populist[2] provincial political party that advocated the political independence of Quebec from Canada in the 1960s.
Unlike the Rassemblement pour l'indépendance nationale led by Pierre Bourgault, a left-wing party, the Ralliement national was more right of centre on the political spectrum.
The Ralliement national was formed in 1966 following a merger between the Regroupement national (a dissident wing of Bourgault's RIN) and a pro-independence group that broke away from the Ralliement des créditistes in 1965.
In the 1966 Quebec general election, the Ralliement national and the Rassemblement pour l'indépendance nationale won about 8.8% of the popular vote and no seats.
After that, Pierre Bourgault disbanded the RIN and invited its members to join the new PQ.
