Nobody talks about the fact that Quebecers also PAY the highest percentage of income tax which should mean they get more services than other provinces. Services including cheaper education.
There's also been a lot going on with the government of Quebec (as someone stated above) in terms of scandal/money and so they are protesting that as well.

Hi Mopek,
There's no doubt that Quebec is one fucked up place. There is scandal everywhere especially in the infrastructure sector right now, and the Quebec Taxation system is a serious problem too. While a few of the students know this, the bulk of them don't know what they are doing. They have no clear direction or cause at this point either. They are protesting for the sake of protesting.
