'Casseroles' of the Maple Spring: The Beauty and Joy of Protest'

'Casseroles' of the Maple Spring: The Beauty and Joy of Protest

by Jeremie Battaglia

Protest in Montreal against the rise of tuition fees in Quebec and the new law 78.
Every evening at 8pm people meet in the street with their pots and pans and make all the noise they can.

A big thank you to the band Avec pas d'casque and their record label Grosse Boîte.

Lyrics (translated from the French by Translating the printemps érable*):

You tell them
You tell them
That it was instinct that
Drove you up to here.
You tell them
You tell them
That your senses were screaming
Deeply driven
By a strange force
Let it be your base camp.
Let it be your base camp.
You tell them
You tell them
That it was intuition that
Drove you up to here
A carelessness
So necessary every now and then
Let it be your base camp.
Let it be your base camp.
