Yah, I have no clue what it costs to run a g20 summit, so a billion to me seems expensive. I also have no idea what that got them in terms of assets, or is it all gone now? I know a few cops that were down there (from Calgary), I will ask them what was going on. I am not sure what was so extreme either.
How many leisure centers can a billion get us? How many schools can be built with that? How many hospitals? Sure, 1 billion is a lot of dough, and it can buy a lot of stuff. But what is a G20 summit worth? Apparently a lot to Harper.
