I then read the Five Reasons to Support the Quebec Student Strike | from the Toronto Media Co-op, comment on pieces about greedy old people and one from Carmelle Wolfson on the possibility of the red square taking hold in ontario, and finish with talking about playing

Exposing the agenda of the Charest government | rabble.ca, then playing a RNN interview with a rep from CLASSÉ
