Canadian police have arrested over 900 people in Toronto in a police crackdown on protests at the G20 summit. Riot police used batons, plastic bullets and tear gas for the first time in the city's history. More than 19,000 security personnel were deployed in Toronto, and a nearly four-mile-long security wall was erected around the G20 summit site at the Toronto Convention Center. The security price tag for the summit is estimated at around $1 billion. Franklin Lopez & Dawn Paley of the Vancouver Media Co-op filed this report from the streets of Toronto.

what it shown in this film is a fascism of the Canadian states' forces against the democratic people of Canada itself. Despite the ever worsening poverty of the poor people and the world financial crisis, this G20 shamelessly wasting an estimated $1 billion just to show the world their anti-people intentions, thus, it kills peoples' democracy.....it is indeed, a TERRORISM against the people world over...
