This morning, the police finally moved those Tamil protesters off of University Ave in front of the US Consulate. Its about time. Of course everyone has the right to protest, but shutting down a major street in downtown Toronto for 4 days is absolutely ridiculous and inexcusable.

How could the Toronto government allow the protest to go on for so long? Doesn't this set a horribly dangerous precedent? I mean, there always seems to be one group or another wanting to protest the US, is everyone now going to be allowed a few days? What if the next group isn't allowed as much time or space, how soon will the cries of discrimination fly? Where was David Miller in all of this?
