Rally in New Brunswick (Canada) kicks-off
"Spring of Resistance"

The rally marked the kick-off for the "Spring of Resistance" [March - May]. It was attended by hundreds and started at St. Thomas University and primarily directed against the high tuition fees.

“The students united will never be defeated,” the crowd chanted as they waved posters and placards. Some read “Defenders of public education,” and “Fight tuition fees.”
The march and protest were organized by the St. Thomas University Students’ Union (STUSU), with help of the student group Unite.
“Young students are also young workers,” said Bailey. “Students can’t pay their fees because wages are low.”
