1. CBC Coverage-NOT Ours!
The crowd was in the thousands at the bottom of Parliment hill and in front of the Chateau Laurier Hotel(they thought perhaps that Bush or his people are staying there).The protest was peaceful at first and then all of a sudden a group of protestors in masks and handerchiefs got aggressive. Then many riot police showed attempting to block the surge toward the hotel. In doing so 2 police were dragged away injured and several rioters were arrested.police put on there gas masks and were about to use tear gas when the crowd started to disperse. They said that these groups woulod be moving on to different sites to protest throughout the day.

It was so good to see people disgusted by the Bush regime making their views heard. They could be a little less passsive aggresive though. Canadien's are generally too polite to riot big time. This shows how disgusted they are. Signs say "Get Out" and "Bush S****">

The True North Strong and FREE!!!

I mean, he's OUR pResident, we're expected to kind of protect him.

But why do Canadians have to try so hard?
