Deposit of DSU petition in favour of Indigenous students’ rights

November 6th, 2024

On Oct. 30, the petition of the Dawson Student Union (DSU) asking the Quebec government to exempt Indigenous students from the harmful effects of Law 14 was officially deposited in the National Assembly.

鈥淚t was important for the DSU to stand up for our fellow students and the rights of Indigenous peoples,鈥 said Leilah Doyle, Vice-President External Affairs. 鈥淭his campaign has concluded but we will continue to advocate for Indigenous students.鈥

Doyle is sad that the government seems closed to really listening to the students and doing the right thing for Indigenous students.

Indigenous students in Quebec are already struggling to pursue further studies at CEGEP, and Law 14, as it is being implemented now, means some Indigenous students will not be able to graduate.

Before it closed on Oct. 25, the petition garnered 2,794 signatures from Quebecers. It was sponsored by Jennifer Maccarone, Member of the National Assembly for Westmount鈹St-Louis.
