G20 summit

Premier Dalton McGuinty has flatly refused to call an inquiry into the way police handled security at last summer's G20 Summit in Toronto, saying "We've got five independent reviews taking place now. I think that's a lot of expertise and independent perspective, and I think that's going to do a really good job."

We think the premier is wrong. There could soon be a dozen independent reviews, based on the numbers of people still coming forward with complaints about the way they were treated last June.

McGuinty punishes those responsible for G20 secret law

Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty has punished those under his command who were responsible for the secret law that was passed during the G20 summit.

The law was passed under the Ontario Public Works Protection Act on June 2 allowing police to search people trying to enter the G20 summit area.

Many people believed that Ontario had passed a rule allowing police to arrest those who came within five metres of the G20 security fence if they had no identification, or refused to show it to officers.

The Toronto Sun has reported that McGuinty said he dealt with the matter, "making changes, changing ministers," including former community safety minister Rick Bartolucci, who switched positions with Jim Bradley as minister of affairs and housing.
