More than 20,000 students at McGill and Concordia universities are set to strike for a week on Monday to protest the Quebec government's tuition hikes for out-of-province and international students.

They can’t increase local tuition since it’s set by the government.

I guess what I’m trying to say is that the government would see this need for more income through local students/the set of international students they have coming in, so they’d have to raise it for the schools themselves.

It’s more just a money in/money out comment. Not sure I said it was the universities increasing the tuition themselves.

The government also sets the out-of-province and international tuition.
