Join students from over 20 countries for protests against the rising cost of education, increasing corporate influence and privatization of education!
Actions are being planned in Ontario and Manitoba, where students are being threatened with higher tuition.

Okay, there is one little thing that bugged me about this. Whose bright idea was it to invite education minister Peter Bjornson to speak? I mean, if you're planning an anti-war rally, you don't invite Peter MacKay to speak. Although I suppose I did have some fun heckling him and shouting profanities at him while he was speaking.
And on the subject, what the hell was Jon Gerrard doing at the rally? His campaign platform last time around was to raise tuition, so why did he even come to the rally? How desperate are the Manitoba Liberals? Although at least he was honest about wanting to raise tuition, unlike the PCs and the NDP.
