MONTREAL, November 15—Some 2,000 junior college and university students demonstrated here today against tuition hikes recently announced by the Quebec government. Thirty-eight student associations representing about 58,000 students across the province voted to participate in a strike. The marchers were also protesting the arrest of dozens of students at protests in the preceding days. The lead banner, shown above, says: “Education is a right.”
