The government’s proposed tuition increases, the catalyst for the recent “student” protests, are meager. The average tuition increase amounts to less than $265 per year for the next five years.
Please consider that university tuitions in Quebec are the lowest in North America, even with the proposed increases.
I find ironic when I see many protesters taking video footage with their smart phones which cost more than the proposed tuition increases.

University tuition in Europe are for mostly for free! Compared to that 265$ more / year , especially when you don't have that money, might be the difference between make or brake for a young person.

I'll tell you what, I will always support students standing up for their rights because history proves them right and their requests changed the world into a better place. Just think about 1968!
