The strike that had over 100 000 students not going to classes ended with a final vote on Friday. Today, things should be normal, but they’re not, at least not for those of us who haven’t had a single class since February 24. A week or two weeks break is fine, but by now I have no idea what I was learning seven weeks ago. Seven weeks. That’s how long I was away from Montreal on my trip last summer. I should have left for paradise again since the strike began. My semester should have ended in four days and now I’m stuck for three more weeks of pain. It wouldn’t have been pain if there were no striking.
It’s politics, everyone is a loser. Right now, everybody hate Charest’s butt and want to kick his ass, but I have to say that I admire him. He’s been lowered to a level no other politician I know of have ever been lowered and look at him there still standing like a dumbass. Not caring for what people think of him is his strongest quality. As for other stuff, well there is none, he’s all bad.

As if all these events weren’t enough, there’s another strike that has pretty much been shadowed by the students. Since that’s over, we’re now exposed to elementary and high school teachers on strike. At least theirs is not for an undetermined amount of time, but still.

So many strikes in two years. First STM got everyone mad last year during winter. Then SAQ gave the hell of a Christmas gift by closing their doors. Two months later, students blasted the government and now we have teachers who I have no idea what they’re complaining about. Oh and by the way, STM are paid to play hockey. That’s what they do because they can’t get in the NHL.

What are people trying to do around here? Beat France on strikes count?
