'Drop the Fees' Rallies Mark Students' Day of Action

 

On November 5, 2008, college and university students from across Canada marched to mark the Students' Day of Action 2008.

The campaign, organized by the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS), was especially active in Ontario. Thousands gathered there in 14 cities, including Toronto, Guelph, Kingston and Windsor. Speakers urged the provincial government to boost access to post-secondary education by simply dropping tuition fees.
