I believe the answer is:

outcry

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'canterbury protest' is the definition.
'outcry' can be an answer for 'protest' (I've seen this before). I'm not certain of the 'canterbury' bit.

'dismissed caught last pair' is the wordplay.
'dismissed' becomes 'out' (dismissed in cricket).
'caught' becomes 'c' (cricket abbreviation).
'last pair' becomes 'ry' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'out'+'c'+'ry'='OUTCRY'

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for outcry that I've seen before include "Public show of anger" , "Public clamour" , "Furious protest" , "Public uproar" , "commotion" .)
