Given the mentality of Quebecois, it wouldn't be reasonable to predict that the months long massive student protests in Montreal will be easily smashed by the Quebec government.

See this news interview with the spokesperson of CLASSE: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/face-of-quebecs-student-protest-surprised-by-its-power/article2425572/.

Although some media sources said that this protest is about the government's austerity measures, personally I would say it's perhaps also about intergenerational equity. The young generation in Quebec, maybe also in the whole Canada, has their dissatisfaction with the generation of baby boomers.
