Alberta students walk out of class in support of teachers forced back to work

In a powerful show of solidarity, thousands of Alberta students walked out of class to support their teachers who were forced back to work by the UCP government. This protest, which took place at the legislature and various locations across the province, highlights the growing tension between educators and the government over labor rights. It matters because it not only underscores the importance of standing up for workers' rights but also demonstrates the active engagement of students in social issues that affect their education.
