Civil society speaks on the anniversary of the G20 in Toronto

A group of civil society organizations and concerned individuals hosted this press conference in Toronto on the one-year anniversary of the G20 in Toronto. These organizations are pressing for an independent inquiry into illegal police actions taken before and during that weekend. Some have also suggested that outstanding charges should be dropped in light of police abuses – especially conspiracy charges leveled against demonstration organizers who were arrested “preemptively” prior to the summit.
