101st demo is peaceful
The 101st evening demo was peaceful following a bigger and more lively demonstration Wednesday night. Only the Gazette seems to have held out hope protesters would obey Pauline Marois’ request to cease demonstrating during the election campaign.

Let me see if I got this right, first LBB stands up and tells students to strike. Manages to graduate during the strike. Then becomes a parrot and squaks the party line of the PQ which have basically tried to co-opt the student strike in hopes of actually getting votes. (And then eventually, probably by year 2 of a mandate, if they can get one, will increase student tuition anyway, because they won’t be able to balance the budget. Or will they resort to the old trick of hiding the deficit in hopes that it will simply go away?)
