More freezing rain warnings across the Ottawa-Gatineau region

A Quebec judge has handed a partial victory to the province’s two largest English universities in a dispute over an increase in tuition fees for domestic students from outside Quebec and a requirement for most of those students to have intermediate proficiency in French. In a decision released Thursday, Quebec Superior Court Justice Éric Dufour concluded that a Quebec government policy that raised tuition at the two institutions, McGill University and Concordia University, for Canadian students from outside Quebec is unreasonable and invalid.
