Even there’s a strike led by 15 associations, the majority still have classes and students do attend them. I won’t expose on which side I am, but I am going to look at this strategically.
I think the strike began at a very bad time, because it’s right 2 days before spring break, so what difference is it going to make if the strike ends in a week.
The students supporting this strike are stupid. No, that didn’t come out right. I mean the students supporting this strike *at this time* are stupid. Students already paid their tuition fees. That money is already out of their pockets and by having this strike… well you can figure it out. If this strike hurts enough to make the government change, then good. But it should have been a bigger stronger strike. And that would have been accomplished at some time before a semester, before students have paid. There’s a much bigger problem when students don’t pay school fees.
But as I said in my previous article, all I want is to finish my studies ASAP. I get the feeling there are more strikes in Quebec than anywhere else in the world. Someone say I’m wrong and tell me where, I won’t go there.
