At the current cost of holding the summit, it would be cheaper to send all of the leaders to the international space station. There would be no securities issues there as only have a few countries have the capability to send things into orbit and pretty much all of them will have their leaders at the summit.

Agreed if our prime minister has a one way ticket only.

Except that the shuttle could blow up on the pad, wiping them all out at once.



just re-read that, space station is a great idea!

FAKE LAKE for 2 million bucks oh man this sideshow just keeps getting better and better.

Canada fail.

G8 'fake lake' slammed by opposition

Ignatieff calls summits 'world's most expensive photo op'


Opposition MPs are ridiculing the Conservative government for spending almost $2 million to create an artificial indoor lake and cottage backdrop inside a Toronto media centre for this month's G8 and G20 summits.
Summit organizers are constructing the artificial lake inside Toronto's Direct Energy Centre to showcase the actual site of the G8 summit hundreds of kilometres away in Huntsville, Ont., on June 25-26. The temporary media centre will host all but about 150 of the estimated 3,000 journalists from around the world covering the G8, as well as the G20 summit in Toronto's downtown core on June 27-28.


Opposition parties have targeted Prime Minister Stephen Harper's government in recent weeks over the costs of the back-to-back international summits, which so far carry an estimated $1 billion price tag on security alone.


During Monday's question period in the House of Commons, Liberal MP Mark Holland asked why the Conservatives would "splurge" on an indoor lake during meetings where Canada will be preaching fiscal restraint to the rest of the world.


"The government is literally going to flush it down the drain when the 72-hour spend-fest is over," Holland told the House.

So has this dog and pony show hit the 1.2 Billion mark yet?
 
Re: Police State Canada 2010 and the G20 Summit

LOL .... they are well over. They just started throwing receipts away and use cash, so nobody can track back what the ultimate tally is .... truly a shame and kick in the pants for too many people living in this country.
 
Re: Police State Canada 2010 and the G20 Summit

What an outrage. If this does not spell the end of Conservatives in federal government I just have to shake my head. Although really I doubt it would be different with any other party. There is no accountability and no sense of what the common man actually goes through in a day to make a decent wage.

It would be downright stupid to believe any other party would've done it differently.

Possibly, but it really rubs the wrong way when it's done by the one party that constantly paints itself as fiscally conservative. But as usual the lines in the sand are drawn, and conservative supporters will turn a blind eye to things like this ridiculous gazebo, and instead yell "terrists!!11" when trying to justify the summit costs.

:p

Or how about the fact that the B.C. security firm that the RCMP has hired to work the G8/20 isn't properly licensed to work in Ontario?
