Street demonstrations attended by hundreds of thousands eight days ago were followed by strikes and sit-ins at half the country's 85 universities, and more protests were planned for Thursday and Saturday.
Nouvelle bataille range devant la Sorbonne
Every time we visit Paris we see huge demonstrations: teachers or Muslims or transit workers. I guess this time it'll be students who are upset by the government's proposed Youth Jobs Program (CPE) that benefits employers at the expense of job security for workers. Being used to Canadian apathy, I'm always surprised at the number of people who attend these rallies.
