Last minor updates December 13, 2007. |
We did not have any information in, about the demonstration in downtown Toronto. We did go down, and we saw where the protesters staged a picket line at subway entrances, asking commuters to "re-route" to the nearest accessible station, eg. to experience some of the inconvenience that many people have to deal with on a daily basis. Several transit routes and subway stations etc. in Toronto are currently not accessible. |
We did notice members of the Toronto police service rudely shoving some of the protesters out of the way of commuters. |

The protesters had the red "access denied" banner with them, the long one that we last saw at Queen's Park in late September. |
There did not appear to be much in the way of television coverage but if you typed in a search string like "D.A.M.N. odsp" in Altavista, there seemed to be reasonably good coverage of the group. Again this information is from late 2007. |
