    Hundreds Rally And March To Mark 1st Anniversary Of G20...

    From CTV News:

    Date: Saturday Jun. 25, 2011 7:33 PM ET

    Several dozen protesters broke off from a G20 anniversary rally held at Queen's Park on Saturday afternoon to peacefully protest through the streets of downtown Toronto.

    Chanting and holding up signs, the group was followed by police officers as they marched toward the intersection of Queen Street West and Spadina Avenue, where a brief sit-in disrupted traffic and diverted TTC streetcars.

    The intersection was the location where police used the kettling tactic to prevent protestors and civilians from leaving the area. Toronto police have said it would be the last time they would use the tactic.

    The group grew to about 200 hundred people as demonstrators later moved east along Queen Street West and north along Bay Street until they reached Toronto police headquarters at 40 College St., between Bay and Yonge Streets. A peaceful protest in front of the building ended at about 7 p.m. on Saturday evening.

    Has it been that long? A whole year since the pissing and moaning?

    Sorry, couldn't resist.

    These people are really protesting the loss of the Blue Jays games against the Phillies and Roy Halliday that weekend.
