Près de 40 000 étudiants de cégeps et d’universités sont présentement en grève au Québec.
Ils exigent que le gouvernement Charest recule dans sa décision de transformer 103 M$ de bourses en prêts étudiants.

Boards of governors in Northern Ireland's schools are not involved enough in checking budgets and making decisions, an Audit Office study has found.
 The Northern Ireland Audit Office report released on Thursday said governors should not just rubber-stamp work done by school principals.
Schools in the province are given their own budgets to spend, which means they can make decisions on staffing levels, equipment and various improvements.
Education and Library Boards made such decisions until 1990, when the Local Management of Schools (LMS) policy was introduced by the Conservative government.
The introduction of LMS meant schools were responsible for 70% of the money spent.
The 80-page Audit Office report said that although the system has enjoyed successes and was popular among principals, improvements could be made.
The report said volunteer governors needed to become more involved in running the schools, checking school budgets and performance.

A teachers' union has issued advice to avoid school trips following a series of court cases over accidents involving children.
 The NASUWT, which has 223,500 members, said the "finger of blame" had been pointed too often at teachers.
General secretary Eamonn O'Kane said the decision was "highly regrettable" but added that society was becoming "increasingly litigious".
The union has set out 36 safety guidelines for group leaders.

Plans for children to progress more quickly to university could cost up to £2m in staff vetting, the Conservative Party has warned.
 Earlier this week, Mike Tomlinson, the man heading a review of education for 14 to 19 year olds in England, said pupils should be able to progress at their own learning pace, rather than simply by age group.
But the Shadow Education Secretary, Tim Yeo, said the prospect of more under-18s going to university would mean as many as 64,000 academic staff having to be vetted for their suitability for working with children.
He added: "'This raises the prospect of yet another burden on universities, to add to the pile of burdens that the Government's Higher Education Bill [which proposes annual tuition fees of up to £3,000] looks likely to impose on universities."

Le maire de Londres, Ken Livingstone, a dénoncé hier le «jeu terriblement dangereux» joué par Jacques Chirac en interdisant le port du voile islamique dans les écoles. Les députés français ont en effet adopté hier en première lecture, par 494 voix contre 36, le projet de loi sur la laïcité, qui interdit le port de signes religieux ostensibles dans les écoles dès la rentrée scolaire 2004.
«C’est une mesure antimusulmane qui va attiser les pressions anti-musulmanes », a estimé le maire travailliste de Londres. «La seule manière de vaincre le fascisme en Europe est de s’opposer à chaque exigence» que formulent les fascistes, a-t-il ajouté.

A tourist walked into a pet shop and was looking at the animals on display. While he was there, another customer walked in and went over to a cage at the side of the shop and took out a monkey.
He fit a collar and leash, handed it to the customer, saying, "That'll be $5000". The customer paid and walked out with his monkey.
Startled, the tourist went over to the shopkeeper and said, "That was a very expensive monkey. Most of them are only a few hundred dollars. Why did it cost so much?"
The shopkeeper answered, "Ah, that monkey can program in C - very fast, tight code, no bugs, well worth the money."
The tourist looked at the monkey in another cage. "That one's even more expensive - $10,000! What does it do?"
"Oh, that one's a C++ monkey; it can manage object-oriented programming, Visual C++, even some Java. All the really useful stuff," said the shopkeeper.
The tourist looked around for a little longer and saw a third monkey in a cage of its own. The price tag around its neck read $50,000. He gasped to the shopkeeper, "That one costs more than all the others put together! What on earth does it do?"
The shopkeeper replied, "Well, I haven't actually seen it do anything, but it says it's a consultant."
