- Q392179 abstract "The First Quebec Conference (codenamed "QUADRANT") was a highly secret military conference held during World War II between the British, Canadian and United States governments. The conference was held in Quebec City, August 17, 1943 – August 24, 1943. It took place at the Citadelle and at the Château Frontenac. The chief representatives were Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt, hosted by Canada's prime minister, William Lyon Mackenzie King. Although Churchill suggested that Mackenzie King be involved in all discussions, Roosevelt vetoed the idea. As a result, Mackenzie King's hospitality was almost purely for ceremonial purposes. Joseph Stalin had been invited to join the conference, however he had to decline due to military reasons.The allies agreed to begin discussions for the planning of the invasion of France, codenamed Operation Overlord in a secret report by the Combined Chiefs of Staff. It was agreed that Overlord would commence on May 1, 1944, however, this was later disregarded and a later date was finalised. However, it is important to realise that Overlord was not the only option; for example, Operation Jupiter remained a strong possibility had the Germans proved too powerful on the French coast. In the Mediterranean (a theatre on which Churchill was very keen) they resolved to concentrate more force to remove Italy from the alliance of Axis Powers and to occupy it along with Corsica. Churchill and Roosevelt made it clear that would only accept unconditional surrender from Italy, with there to be a complete and immediate cessation of fighting. News came through of the fall of Sicily to allied forces; an invasion that had taken just 38 days. It was then decided that an invasion of Italy would commence, with this finally happening on September 3, 1943. However, an armistice was signed that same day, which officially put Italy out of the war.There were discussions about improving the coordination of efforts by the Americans, British, and Canadians to develop an atomic bomb. Churchill and Roosevelt, without Canadian input, signed the Quebec Agreement, stating that the nuclear technology would never be used against one another, that they would not use it against third parties without the consent of one another, but also that the discussion of Tube Alloys would not be discussed with third parties. Canada, although not being represented at the particular meeting, played a key proponent of this agreement as she was a major source of uranium and heaver water, both essential in the atomic bomb.It was decided that operations in the Balkans should be limited to supplying guerrillas whereas operations against Japan would be intensified in order to exhaust Japanese resources, cut their communications lines and secure forward bases from which the Japanese mainland could be attacked.In addition to the strategic discussions, which were communicated to the Soviet Union and to Chiang Kai-Shek in China, the conference also issued a joint statement on Palestine, intended to calm tensions as the British occupation was becoming increasingly untenable. The conference also condemned German atrocities in Poland.It was clear that eliminating Italy from war was the allies' main priority; this was expected to be done by the end of 1943. Following this, the next hope was that Germany would be defeated by the fall of 1944, which would leave just Japan remaining in the axis powers.Following the conference, Churchill holidayed at a fishing camp and then, on August 31, 1943, delivered a radio address before travelling by special train to Washington, D.C. to resume talks with Roosevelt.".
