The Quebec student protest refers to a series of demonstrations that took place in Quebec, Canada, primarily in 2012. The protests were sparked by proposed tuition fee increases for post-secondary education, which many students believed would limit access to education and disproportionately affect low-income families. Students organized large-scale marches and strikes, drawing significant media attention and public support. The movement highlighted broader issues related to education funding and government policies, leading to discussions about the affordability of higher education in Canada. The protests ultimately resulted in the government freezing tuition fees for a period.
