Original Note:
Jean Chretien was mobbed by demonstrators in Hull, Quebec protesting cuts to employment insurance on February 15, 1996. During that demonstration there was a physical altercation between Chretien and a protester, resulting in what is now known as the "Shawinigan Handshake." https://www.cbc.ca/archives/the-prime-minister-and-the-protester-1.5009463 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shawinigan_Handshake
