McGill on strike

Les associations étudiantes se sont mobilisées indépendamment de la Faculté des
Arts à l’occasion de la grève contre la hausse des frais de scolarité.
Louis Baudoin
Le Délit

Chronologie V

S

i l’on doit dire une chose de
l’année 2011-2012 à McGill,
c’est qu’elle aura été mouvementée. Entre grèves, blocus et
un nombre sans précédents d’Assemblées générales, le deuxième
semestre en particulier a connu
une mobilisation étudiante jamais
vue jusqu’alors sur le campus de
la plus grande université anglophone du Québec. Au total, huit
départements auront voté pour la
grève, illimitée dans six cas, toutes
pour protester contre la hausse
des frais de scolarité.
Après que l’Association des
étudiants de premier cycle de
la Faculté des Arts (AÉFA) ait
voté contre la grève lors d’une
Assemblée générale où la participation a été la plus grande
de l’histoire de McGill (environ
1100 étudiants), certains départements ont décidé de voter pour la
grève lors d’Assemblées générales
indépendantes. Ainsi, le 18 Mars
au matin, les étudiants en Travail
Social ont commencé leur grève
en piquetant devant le Pavillon
Wilson. Le même jour à midi, les
étudiants de Littérature Française
des cycles supérieurs occupaient
les marches du bâtiment des Arts.
À l’instar de la plupart des universités québécoises, on pouvait enﬁn dire que McGill était en grève.
Le lendemain, les étudiants en Anglais se sont joints
à la grève, suivis le jour d’après
par ceux en Études de la femme, ceux de Géographie le 22,
puis ceux en Histoire de l’Art et
Communications le 26 et enﬁn
ceux de Philosophie le 28. Le
département de Musique a voté
pour une grève d’une journée
(celle de la manifestation du 22)
et celui des cycles supérieurs en
Éducation a voté pour une grève
renouvelable de 5 jours.
Selon Philippe Robichaud,
président
de
l’Association
Générale des Étudiants en Langue
et Littérature Française (AGELF):
«La grève, je la vois comme un
médium d’expression, un outil.
Au sein même du département,
nous avons vu de nombreuses
personnes prendre position, s’exprimer, et même, surtout, changer
d’idées depuis le début des manifestations.» Mais les étudiants ne
sont pas les seuls à être en faveur
de la grève. Certains professeurs
disent qu’ils «encouragent leur
étudiants à prendre part à la grève
tout en créant des conditions de
débats pour rester équitable envers les deux côtés».
Même si la majorité des classes ont eu lieu à McGill depuis
le vote des départements, devant
un bon nombre d’entre elles les
manifestants piquetaient aﬁn

d’empêcher la tenue des classes des départements en grève.
Il est important de différencier
le «piquetage doux» du «piquetage agressif». Dans le premier
cas, tout le monde peut passer,
mais on cherche à faire comprendre l’importance de ne pas aller
en cours. Dans le deuxième, les
étudiants en grève empêchent
physiquement et verbalement les
autres étudiants de passer.
Pour
Camille
GodboutChouinard, étudiante à McGill,
le piquetage «est la seule manière
de faire respecter la grève, mais à
McGill on devrait s’en tenir au
piquetage doux» Certaines tactiques ont été jugées trop violentes où intimidantes, comme
l’usage de la force pour empêcher les étudiants d’aller en
cours. Néanmoins, l’opposition
à la grève s’est organisée, comme
avec l’évènement Facebook «I’m
a McGill student, and I am proud to
cross illegal picket lines!» organisé
par ModPac.
Les grèves et les actions qu’elles entraînent font polémique sur
le campus, et l’on s’interroge en
particulier quant à leur légalité.
Le code de conduite étudiant de
McGill interdit l’obstruction aux
activités universitaires mais «n’empêchent pas la tenue d’assemblés,
de réunions et de manifestations
paisibles ou le piquetage licite, ni
n’interdisent la liberté de parole.»
Le mot clé ici est «licite», et il est

vrai que les règles et l’administration restent assez ﬂoues sur ce qui
est permis ou non. Selon la doyenne étudiante Jane Everett: «Nous
procédons au cas par cas avec plusieurs ofﬁciers de discipline car un
seul individu ne peut pas décider
du sort d’un élève pour ce qui est
des sanctions.»
Qu’ils soient légaux ou non,
les grèves et les piquetages sont
une première à McGill: «En 30
ans de carrière, je ne me souviens
pas en avoir vu», a dit Everett. Il
est dur de juger l’efﬁcacité des
grèves à McGill, mais le simple
fait que certains départements
de McGill soient en grève pour
la première fois est déjà porteur
d’un symbole fort.
Si certains départements
ont voté en faveur de la continuation de la grève, comme
celui de Travail social, d’autres
ont cessé le combat après une
semaine, comme les département de Littérature anglaise et
de Littérature française (premier
cycle). Une troisième catégorie
est celle des départements qui
n’ont pas réussi à atteindre leur
quorum durant les AG suivant le
vote de grève comme Géographie
le 27 mars ou Études de la femme
le 28. Dans ces cas-ci, les départements restent en grève car ils ont
voté pour une grève illimitée mais
les étudiants ne sont pas sûrs s’ils
devraient continuer la grève où
non. x

Exotic funding

The politics of shedding clothes to pay for school
Carina Antczak

The McGill Daily

T

he image of students performing at strip clubs garnered media attention
in 2007, when the Gazette, the
daily student newspaper of the
University of Western Ontario,
reported that a strip club near
the University of Guelph called
The Manor offered $5000 toward
tuition at a wet T-shirt contest.
The strip club claimed no nudity
was necessary in order to participate, although the Gazette
claimed these contests, decided
by applause, often rewarded contestants for going the extra mile –
in the nude.
Is there anything to the idea
that McGill students strip or engage
in sex work to pay their bills? Or
could it be simply a rumour born
of the numerous visits college students pay to downtown strip clubs?
More importantly, if a student had
chosen exotic dance as a means
to pay their tuition, what would
have led them to such a decision?

To find out the answer, I decided
to get the story from the source: I
went to a strip club.
Les Amazons, a gentleman’s
club known for its cheap alcohol
and even cheaper food, has always
been popular among college students, and Friday night was no
exception. I pretended that my
friend, who preferred to remain
anonymous, was into college girls
and wanted to purchase a dance
from one. The bouncer promptly
directed me to a young blonde
French Canadian dancer named
Jessica.
Jessica explained that she
began work at Les Amazons four
years ago at the age of 19 when she
heard stories of girls earning $800
a night, and her job at the pub
PJ’s next door no longer seemed
adequate. She said she had a base
salary of minimum wage, with an
additional $10 for every dance. She
was not currently attending college, although she had graduated
from a veterinary technician program; she preferred not to mention
the school. Jessica had worked as a
veterinary assistant but the salary

could not compare with that of Les
Amazons. According to Jessica, five
other girls were attending college
or had already graduated from programs as diverse as management
and law, with one of the dancers
working as a border patrol agent
during the day and another as a
real estate agent.
Interestingly, Jessica was aware
of McGill’s rowdy reputation, saying she had heard the parties “were
really sick,” and inquired whether
such rumours were true. She also
criticized girls who got nude at parties, saying they were essentially
behaving like exotic dancers without being hired to do so. “You’re
either a dancer or you’re not; there’s
no in-between,” she said.
Aware that exotic dancing is
not a profession with great prospects, Jessica intended to attend
veterinary school in the fall. She
also explained that most girls had
entered the business after finishing
CEGEP and, knowing it was temporary, had the intention of amassing
savings in order to attend college in
the future. Jessica also added that
her parents were aware of her job

and although they did not approve,
the knowledge that she did not
consume alcohol or drugs and had
enough to purchase a house and a
car reassured them.
Is it possible the same incentives
that lead a student into stripping
can also lead them into sex work?
Émilie Laliberté, general coordinator of STELLA, an organization
which describes itself as “by and
for sex workers,” claims that the
incidence of students performing
sex work to cover their tuition is
high. STELLA was founded in 1995,
with the intention of promoting
the decriminalization of sex work,
fighting discrimination, and providing safety and support for sex
workers. Ms. Laliberté also clarified that these students choose
sex work as a last option, believing
that they cannot continue through
any other means. Ms. Laliberté
also maintained that just as many
students choose exotic dancing
as a means of paying their tuition
as those who choose sex work or
escort services.

A bittersweet goodbye
Easy truffles to end off the school year

Budget

1. Bittersweet
Chocolate Truffles
Alas! My final column for The
Daily. As a parting gift, I wanted
to give you this truffle recipe to
bring you out of the depths of exam
depression in the weeks to come.
Thanks so much for reading. It’s
been tasty.

Ingredients: 1 cup heavy
cream, 1 lb (approximately 450 gm)
finely chopped bittersweet chocolate, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 8 ounces
unsweetened cocoa powder.
Method: Place the chocolate
in a ceramic bowl and heat the
cream in a saucepan over medium heat until gently simmering.
Remove the cream from heat, add
the vanilla, and combine completely.

Simmer the cream for two more
minutes. Pour the cream over the
chopped chocolate and let sit for
five minutes. Using a whisk, beat
together the chocolate and cream
until extremely smooth. Pour the
mixture into an 8-inch baking pan
and cool over night (or for at least
five hours). In the morning, put
the cocoa in a bowl and use a teaspoon to scoop out small balls of
truffle from the baking dish. Each
ball should be about 2 cm in diameter. Roll the balls in the cocoa
and serve. These keep for about a
week in a sealed container so long
as they’re kept in a cool place.
If you want to put several layers
of truffles in one container,
make sure to use wax paper
between layers.

work, said that she had “taught and
interacted with a number of students who have engaged in various
forms of sex work while studying,”
although she declined to explain
further.
It seems that the sex industry is
an option that students or recent
graduates often seriously consider,
though the circumstances under
which individual students approach
sex work differ.
There is evidence that exotic
dancing and sex work are industries that students enter to supplement their incomes, and there’s a
lot more to be considered. There
are also other sectors with more
flexible hours not investigated in
this article, such as the phone sex
industry, that may be more convenient for a student schedule. By
talking about these issues and trying to understand student motivations for entering the sex industry, hopefully some of the taboos
around these jobs can be removed.
Then students will be able to come
forward with their stories to give a
more accurate portrayal of the realities that these workers face.
