Canadians must constantly keep this lb mind today lest theybe influenced irrationally by the enthusiasm of some for Irresponsible protest Certainly the protest over proposed language hill granting minority rights to the English in Quebec is sad and most frightening incident of the week The organizers of the protest pressed young sters into service some of them only 12 years old in their attack on the legislature in Quebec City Premier Bertrand accused teachers of creating the climate of anarchy by invol ving youngsters who did not even know why they were brought to the legislature liberal leader Lemge charged that children who understand nothing were conscflpted Rene Levesque labelled the performance criminal act But what will he the consequences rWili the teachers who must have been involved be prosecuted Will they lose their jobs for failing to hold classes when classes are supposed to be held It is un likely Some perverted idca of their free dom will undoubtedly be used to protect them from the consequences of their acts Similarly in British Columbia students took over Simon Fraser Universitva an extent that the proper operation of the institution must have been disrupted Police were called to remove them and as consequence the students involved In the takeover faced crindnzil charges Immediately the plea rose that the charges be dropped that these young sters 511on not have criminal charges on their record Yet these were presumably intelligent young men and women They were sure ly aware of what could be the consequen ces of their protest If they face criminal charges they must know that it is not the fault of the police or the unierslty but it is because they broke the law If their rotest is to be meaningful they must ace up to this fact DOWN
