Keep in mind the source (who may not be familiar to Albertans, but is a highly respected Ontario Journalist).
BTW, i find the violent actions and vandals of some of the people nothing but dispicable, and generally don't think of the kind of protests happening as being at all compelling or effective. However, I find some of the Police action and the government's overall approach to hosting this summit to be highly questionable.
