Description

An autistic Quebec student was expelled from college after failing to secure a French-language exemption — sparking outrage over a rigid, unappealable system that prioritizes rules over student well-being. Critics argue the current exemption process is overly punitive and fails to consider individual needs, calling it cruel and outdated. Experts and politicians are demanding urgent reform, urging a child-centered approach that values education access above bureaucratic compliance, with multiple parties pledging to overhaul the system if elected.
