It’s been remarked here recently (see comments to this entry) that most hardline language demonstrators and PQ stalwarts are gray-haired, whereas most of the demonstrators in the protests against tuition hikes – and now against Bill 78 – are of college and university age.
Not the same demographic at all – different generations responding to different problems.

Bill 101 also tramples fundamental constitutional rights but the same gang of yahoos who are upset today run around town trying to enforce it.
