Premier, mayor warn Tamils
Despite warnings from the premier and mayor, organizers of last night's massive protest on the Gardiner Expressway say they are not ruling out the possibility of another drastic traffic-stopping...
They need water cannons and tear gas next time around. If not we should start our own counter protest and see how messy it gets. Maybe thats a good way to clearly demonstrate the two classes of citizenry that now exist in this country.

You seem to be only taking into consideration the driving.
Do you not think those people stuck on the highway had places to go and things to do?
Maybe someone missed a flight, or missed work, appointments etc.
No matter how you look at it, this protest cost the city & those stuck for hours on the gardiner money.
not to mention it was illegal for them to even step on the gardiner.

Or how about all the hospital staff that works downtown?
This is Canada's largest city, people do more downtown than just visit their mom on a Sunday.

Goodbye, Toronto!
I'm the head of an association that was planning to hold an international conference in Toronto in early August...but we're moving it to Vancouver, along with the substantial revenue that comes with over 400 attendees. I simply will not put our delegates at risk of being subjected to terrorist chants, drums and other threats. I hope David Miller is happy, because his inaction just cost Toronto tourism a LOT of money. I would also encourage all other groups to consider relocating their events, and I would suggest that all other residents please advise any tourists/guests that you might have anticipated to visit Toronto to consider other options.

If this is true, and i dont doubt that it is, the mayor and the police chief should resign.
