quote

whose involvement, however demonstrably nonviolent, with certain members of the Québecois-Separatist Left while in graduate school had placed her name on the R.C.M.P.’s notorious ‘Personnes à Qui On Doit Surveiller Attentivement’ List

Context

Avril's pre-existing Québécois-separatist ties, laid out in the obituary record: her "involvement, however demonstrably nonviolent, with certain members of the Québecois-Separatist Left while in graduate school had placed her name on the R.C.M.P.'s notorious 'Personnes à Qui On Doit Surveiller Attentivement' List." Documented, pre-existing Québécois-separatist ties — the flat obituary datum the whole Avril-as-operative theory rests on, and the reason obtaining her Exit- and Entrance-Visas and Green Card was a "bureaucratic tribulation." The Dean of Females at an O.N.A.N. academy entered the U.S. as a Mounties-watch-listed Separatist associate.
