Montreal Stock Exchange bombing
On February 13, 1969, a powerful bomb was detonated inside the Montreal Stock Exchange building in Quebec, Canada, causing the injuries of 27 people and massive damage. It was planted by the separatist Quebec Liberation Front and came amid a time of escalating attacks by the group. The bombing caused nearly a million dollars of property damage and blew the building's northeast wall. The explosion happened some 40 minutes before the end of trading.
The attack was one of the FLQ's biggest in its bombing campaign, and was the culmination before the October Crisis of 1970.
