PM Harper & bankers dance through downtown

From The Spoke, Monday June 21st, toronto.mediacoop.ca

On Thursday, June 17, Stephen Harper led a procession of wealthy bankers through the streets of Toronto. Harper and his bankers were followed by a human oil slick. Overworked tax-payers scrambled behind the oil slick with mops and brooms to clean up the mess while Harper and his bankers counted their giant $1billion bills. The action, which was organized by the At the Table Coalition, was a tongue-in-cheek commentary on spending for the G8 and G20 summits when foreign aid has been frozen and Canada’s fair share on climate adaptation has yet to be paid.
