I've watched with horror all afternoon - Toronto is hosting the G20 Summit. Toronto is typically a quiet, clean, safe city.

There was a peaceful protest planned today by a number of groups, about 10,000 people - families - voicing their concerns over women's rights, worker's rights, etc. Their peaceful protest was highjacked by hoodlums - some sort of Anarchist protest group - have been smashing storefronts, burning police cars.

My heart is heavy with sadness that this senseless violence has found its way to our beautiful and peaceful city.
