Student revolt in Montreal

Montreal student revolt carries on

In the past couple of weeks, dozens of student demonstrators have been arrested for protesting college tuition hikes in Montreal, Canada. Students have been on strike for 77 days over the increased tuition that will cost them up to $325 annually for the next five years. Quebec Premier Jean Charest attempted to compromise with the students by giving them more time to pay off the $1,625, but students feel the offer is an insult. Bernard Desgagne, a citizen journalist, joins us for the latest.
