summary: 
rabble.ca was the media sponsor for a panel held in Toronto to discuss Canada's role in international conflict, and the effects of war on security and border policies.

Resistance Across Borders was held March 2nd in Toronto, as an opportunity to encourage understanding about Canada's involvement in war, as well as the implications of international conflict on security and borders.

The MC for Resistance Across Borders was Andrea Peloso, coordinator for CODEPINK in Toronto.
