In 1987, three young photographers decided to establish a photography group. Like large news organizations such as Reuters or AFP, Robert Fréchette, Jean-François LeBlanc and Martin Roy created an independent and collective structure that had never been seen before in Quebec. For nearly forty years, Stock covered the major events that shaped Quebec society. From the Quebec referendum to Maple Spring, including the struggle against Kanehsatà:ke (or the Oka crisis) and the Summit of the Americas, this collection of photographers has been able to present a variety of views on key issues social, political and cultural that have marked the History of Quebec.
