Raymond Guy LeBlanc
Canadian poet and musician (1945–2021)
Raymond Guy LeBlanc (24 January 1945 – 28 October 2021) was a Canadian poet and musician.[1][2] He was an Acadian born in the village of Saint-Anselme, now part of Dieppe, New Brunswick near Moncton.[3]
He was the author of the first collection of Acadian poetry published by an Acadian press, "Cri de Terre" in 1972. This and other literary contributions over a 50-year career made him a symbol of an Acadian cultural renaissance in the second half of the twentieth century.[3]
