Université de Laval teacher cancels class despite injuction

le pavillon Louis-Jacques Casault  (université Laval / Québec)Laurent Proulx, a University de Laval student, had asked the Court for the entirety of the picketing in front of his University to stop.

On April 4, the Superior Court of Quebec agreed only to grant Proulx with the right to assist his anthropology class.

Yet, upon arriving at his anthropology class last Tuesday, he quickly learned that his teacher had cancelled it.

According to Radio-Canada, teacher Martin Hébert cancelled his class due to an overwhelming media presence.

Hébert had already asked his employer for the media to be absent and added that he couldn’t teach because his classroom was transformed into a circus.

Proulx refused to say if he considered this to be an act that went against his injunction. In the end, the class which was supposed to be held at 3:30pm started at 5:10pm instead.
