G-20 protesters plan on taking to the streets in Toronto again today.
This time the focus of their demonstration is being billed as a “toxic tour” of Toronto.
They say they will expose mining companies and others for the environmental damage they have caused around the world.
Dozens of gay and lesbian rights activists used music and street theatre yesterday in what one demonstrator called “a carnival of resistance.”
On Monday, hundreds of anti-poverty, animal rights and other activists stopped traffic as they marched through Toronto streets.
All of the protests have been peaceful so far and under the watchful eye of long lines of police on bicycles.
