Tens of thousands of Quebec university and college students have been marching, blocking roads and bridges and loudly demonstrating for seven weeks against a tuition hike - making it the longest student strike in the province's history. More than 188,000 students were on strike in the province Thursday, meaning the majority of the 495,000 students were still attending classes. What we're seeing now is unprecedented. This is the biggest, largest and longest student strike in Quebec's history. The effective use of social media and traditional media - such as staging new actions everyday - has also helped students win sympathy from Quebecers.
