Sunday night around 7pm the Tamil protesters took over the Gardiner by walking up the Spadina ramp, and the traffic in my neighborhood came to a stop. We weren't aware of this as we were enjoying dinner in Brampton. We did learn of it on the way back along with thousands of other people. Usually it takes us around 35min to get back home from my Mom's, last night it took us a little bit over 2 hours.
no traffic either way on Gardiner... all the cars down there are police vehicles... or on Spadina...
there were so many police officers... those in their full riot gear were a bit scary...
a bit after midnight, the protesters started to leave the Gardiner...
and marched up Spadina chanting "No more genocide!"... with police escort of course...
I can't disagree with the protest... thousands of people are dying... I hope this has heleped their cause...
