WHERE: Queen's Park and on various streets of the downtown core.

WHEN: Afternoon of Saturday, June 25.

WHAT: Approximately 400 people gathered at Queen's Park early Saturday afternoon for G20 Redux, an event marking the one-year anniversary of the G20 weekend in Toronto. CTV reported that after that early gathering, a few dozen people left the park and marched through the streets of the downtown core, stopping at Queen and Spadina and then continuing east on Queen, picking up more and more protesters along the way, before heading up Bay Street. The marching crowd, reportedly numbering near 200 at its peak, ended at the Toronto Police headquarters on College Street, where they held a peaceful demonstration until 7 p.m.

  • 20,000 security force, 1 billion Dollar Budget, couldn't stop the army of (300) max Black Bloc teenage vandals who broke windows and set cruisers on fire , Its the largest defeat in history. 1118 Canadians were Arrested which is the Largest Mass arrests in Canadian History, Only 24 convictions. "Overwhelmed and Underprepared" . Priceless
