Good to know what the City REALLY thinks of our neighborhood. 

 

First, there was going to be Smart Centre, then a TTC railyard.  Now, apparently the City is going to use the old Toronto Film Studios site as a "temporary jail" to house the protesters they expect to arrest during the G20 Summit in June.

 

God, I hope something responsible gets done with that land soon - I can only imagine what the City will think of next!

Methodoligally...a word I use almost daily now...anarchists shouldn't be able to use a calendar. Yet they seem to show up in time for the acting to start. Ironically they'll be spending time in an actor's shed. Irony bites its own tail...serpent eating serpent...is the serpent really there?
Nah they will just be visiting. Brought into The LVille by the RCMP, from what I understand.
too much construction in the 'hood
maybe we have angered the serpent gods....
the things that are befalling us ....

I've decided I'm getting my family out of the city for the G20. Too much hullaballo and it seems like a good weekend to spend a little time in the country.
Well leaving to the country is a great idea but don't forget the G8 is going at the same time in Huntsville!

We're doing the same!

I'm going to dress up like a Teletubbie and make a funny sign, walk around CSIS headquarters...again. I'll probably get a free ride back to Leslieville.

G20 Summit CCTV installation has begun
Toronto Police Service News Release

Friday, May 14, 2010 - 10:00 AM
Public Information
416-808-7100

In preparation for the G20 Summit, security measures are being undertaken to ensure the safety of all those who live and visit our city.

The installation of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras has started throughout the downtown core. These cameras are in addition to those already in place by the Toronto Police Service.

These additional cameras will support the G20 security measures and will be monitored during the course of the event. The additional CCTV cameras will be removed at the completion of the G20.

CCTV can be defined as an electronic monitoring system that makes use of video cameras, connected by means of a closed (non-broadcast) circuit to capture, collect, record and/or relay visual information about an event unfolding in a given area over time.

A list of the CCTV locations will be released to the public once their installation is complete.

From the outset, we have said that there will be nothing secret about the cameras. They will observe public spaces only. Prominent signs announcing their presence will be posted at each intersection.

Click here for CCTV information on the Toronto Police Service website.

The Toronto Police Service is aware of the privacy concerns associated with the use of CCTV cameras. We will continue to work very closely with the Privacy Commissioner with respect to those issues.

The 2010 G8-G20 Integrated Security Unit has the mandate to ensure safe
and secure summits in Huntsville and Toronto in June 2010 for all
participants, visitors and residents. The ISU is comprised of the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police, Toronto Police Service, Ontario Provincial
Police, Peel Regional Police and the Canadian Forces.

For further information, please contact the Integrated Security Unit’s Media Relations line at 1-888-338-3738.

Constable Wendy Drummond, Public Affairs & Community Relations, Toronto Police Service G20 Planning Team
