Summiteering in Fortress Toronto

A Pictorial Essay (all photos by Romy Marquez)


As the days of the G8/G20 summits in Huntsville, Muskoka north of Toronto, and in Downtown Toronto, approach this weekend, hundreds of fully-armed police have descended on Canada's largest city. They walk around in squads of eight, or pairs of twos. They bike and scoot in and out of the summit zone which will be sealed off to the general public starting on Thursday, June 24, 2010.

Here are some of the pictures taken today. Wednesday, June 23, 2010 as the Philippine Village Voice and Currents & Breaking News begin its coverage of the summit in downtown starting June 26 through 27.

The police also deployed cameras all over the area to make sure even the littlest mischief is monitored and recorded.
