Anti war protestors, 2007. Think it'll happen this again week as Joe visits? Lol, Chinese problems, border security and bird flu as well. It's deja vu all over again

Upwards of 1,500 protesters from Montreal, Toronto, Quebec City, and Hamilton marched on Parliament Hill in Ottawa on Monday to protest the arrival of U.S. President George W. Bush. Bush will meet today with Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Mexican President Felipe Calderon in Montebello, Quebec on the two-year-old Security and Prosperity Partnership. The agenda is to include emergency planning for an avian-flu pandemic, the recall of Chinese-made toys, and border security. Demonstrators denounced the summit as anti-democratic and warned the public that Canada’s sovereignty is at stake, and anti-war activists chanted “George Bush shame on you/Daddy was a killer too.” The otherwise peaceful protest ended with one arrest related to a spray painting incident.
