Toronto's Day Of Protest

In the space of two hours and three city blocks, I walked past and / or was passed by three, count 'em, three protests.

In front of Maple Leaf Gardens, Ontario teachers protested Bill 115, the unilateral deal imposed upon them by the sitting Liberal government.

In the middle of Allan Gardens, a couple of hundred people gathered to protest windfarms, drawn, I imagine, as the teachers were by the presence of the Liberal party leadership convention going on in Maple Leaf Gardens.

Probably for the same reason, an Ontario Coalition Against Poverty parade just passed by my front door.

Darn those Liberals.  And woe betide the winner of today's convention.

See photos.
