Karl Rove stops by Toronto for G20

Protesters are going to have an embarrassment of riches this weekend when the G20 circus rolls into town. What’s an anti-capitalist to do? Go after the current leaders or the man who helped put George W. Bush in power—twice? Karl Rove, former Bush adviser, will be addressing world leaders at Canada Christian College in Toronto this Friday as part of the G20 Summit for Faith and Business Leaders just as the G20 summit is in full swing. The contentious abortion funding issue will surely be a hot topic at the Rove gathering (tickets are a shockingly cheap $25), which means the protest groups out front will be a curious—and hopefully not bloodthirsty—blend of anarchists and pro-lifers.
