Quebec Student Uprising

The Quebec Student Uprising was a student uprising in Quebec, Canada throughout 2012.
== Background ==
Quebec had previously had the lowest university tuition fees in all of Canada, until the government announced in 2011 that it would hike up tuition fees.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Quebec_student_protests#Historical_context
== Result ==
The pressure and disruption created by the student movement caused the new government to scrap the austerity bill and declare a tuition freeze. First some and then the rest of the universities voted to end the strike.Peter Gelderloos (2015) The Failure of Nonviolence
