Incident at Restigouche is a 1984 documentary film by Alanis Obomsawin, chronicling a series of two raids on the Listuguj Mi'gmaq First Nation (Restigouche) by the S没ret茅 du Qu茅bec in 1981, as part of the efforts of the Quebec government to impose new restrictions on Native salmon fishermen. Obomsawin had heard about an impending police raid on the news and wanted to head to Restigouche immediately with a film crew. However, it took several weeks of discussions with her producer, the National Film Board of Canada (NFB), to secure permission. With approval finally granted, she arrived at the reserve with a small film crew shortly after a second raid. Obomsawin was irritated about what she had missed, forced to rely on footage from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and photographs from L'Aviron, a Campbellton newspaper. To add insult to injury, when Obomsawin asked the NFB for permission to shoot more interviews, including with then-Minister of Fisheries Lucien Lessard, who had ordered the raids, the Abenaki filmmaker was informed by NFB management that she should not interview white people for her film, only natives. Obomsawin disregarded this order and interviewed Lessard anyway, in an exchange that would serve as a key part of the film.聽
