The Monday After......

It was definitely an eventful past four days here in Toronto; earthquake, vandalism, lockdowns......loss of common sense from some people (if they've had any to begin with).

The Monday after.....it's back to work for most people in the downtown core, though, things were not quite back to normal as yet.  My office building was still operating on enhanced security.  We were advised to come to work wearing casual clothes.  We were advised to have our G20 registration pass, work badge, and a government photo ID with us at all times.  As it turns out, it was good to have had these precautions.  I was on my way home from work, a protest was once again starting.  You never know what will happen during these things.

A lot has been said these past four days - anybody watching the media coverage should take the reporting with a grain of salt.

I, for one, support the police.  It was not an easy job keeping their cool while being taunted.  Professionalism must be maintained, safety of the public is foremost in mind.  It was an extremely difficult situation they were in.

I hope that they do not get demoralized by hearing all the detracting comments addressed to them.  Your hard work is very much appreciated.

Keep Safe!
