After his response to Wente's small-minded article in The Globe and Mail went viral, this blogger's writings hit my radar. He followed up his inflammatory response to Wente's right-wing diatribes against progress with another great piece about how Quebec's social movement might just be a model to follow.
Here, he gives some great perspective on the movement, noting that the students might want to shift their focus on to some different numbers than the $1625, $1778, $0, law 78, March/April/May 22nd, 100 days ...
As I've noted before, the argument against the hike is about debt, not tuition. Spry aptly notes that: "the Canadian Federation of Students estimates the current national student debt at $14.5 billion."
Are Quebecers the only ones that realize how much banks make off of students? Or is that they are the only ones to take to the streets?
