pyesetz | Ontario gives in on G20 law

As a result of the most massive compromise of civil liberties in Canadian history, the government of Ontario has agreed to repeal the law it used to designate a meeting of foreign leaders as a "Public Works project". No word yet on what they will do about the police chief who now admits that he just made up the part about how being within 5 metres of a public works project is cause for arrest.

My take is that this is all Harper's fault and McGuinty's problem is that he allowed Harper to twist his arm in some way.

Layton seems to be enjoying his sudden fame! He's talking about what he would do as prime minister and people are actually listening to him for a few days. If the NDP gets more seats than the Liberals, the Everyone-but-Conservatives coalition should be a done deal and maybe proportional representation might actually have a chance in this country.
