Like you would expect in North Korea, it doesn’t look like we are going to get a federal inquiry into what the hell happened during the G20.
But thanks to independent documentary filmmaker Derek Soberal we do have a comprehensive record they can’t quash.
It’s called Toronto G20 Exposed and it’s an A to Z video rundown of all that occurred — from Officer Bubbles, to the overlooking of the real criminals, to disgraceful torching of police cruisers, to the embarrassing arrest (assault?) of a peaceful one-legged protester, to the rubber bullets and covered name tags, to alleged beatings and the disgraceful kettling exercise at Spadina and Queen.
It’s disturbing but a mustwatch. You can find it on line at www.TorontoG20Exposed. ca and you can also order a DVD hard copy for your collection.
“I made up 1,000 of them,” Derek said this week of the endeavour paid for with his own money and not from the billion-dollar taxpayer slush fund that fuelled the whole debacle.
And guess who has been his biggest customers so far?
“The police,” he said laughing of their souvenir purchases.
I am probably naive but am still hoping somebody in power cares enough about this country and its citizens to answer the following questions: How much did it cost the taxpayers? Who got that money? Who made the decision to stand down and let the anarchists run wild but then later condoned the arrest more than 1,000 innocent people for no reason?
The tax collectors at the helm, who are playing the time game and are hoping it will all go away, still don’t seem to realize they work for us and it will only go away when we say it does.
It won’t go away for a lot of people until somebody explains how it is in a country with a Charter of Rights there could be martial law without going through Parliament?
