The G20 leaders are in town this weekend, and the protests are abundant. Although there were various causes that I sympathize with, I chose not to participate in the protest this weekend.
Instead I jumped on my bike with a friend and set about Saturday morning to document the historic events that unfolded in downtown Toronto.
The following collection of photos I took throughout the day reveal chronologically how the day turned from peaceful protests to tension, to anarchy.
