Even though the G20 happened all around downtown Toronto, it still affected stores and places in the Yonge and Dundas community.
The G-20 is the premier forum for discussing, planning and monitoring international economic cooperation. The theme of the Toronto summit was "Recovery and New Beginnings."The summit provided an opportunity for the leaders to discuss plans to ameliorate the impact of the ongoing world recession.The summit's priorities included evaluating the progress of financial reform, developing sustainable stimulus measures, debating global bank tax, and promoting open markets
People during the G20 were uncontrollable stores and businesses were destroyed. the aftermath will continue for some time. The newspapers are filled with follow up stories about everything that happened over the weekend, from the Black Bloc to innocent people being arrested. It is interesting to see how the focus of the reporting moves from the big picture to the individual human interest pieces.
