MONTREAL (CP) - A demonstration billed as a protest for peace assumed a distinctly anti-Israeli flavour Sunday as protesters denounced the Jewish state for killing hundreds of Lebanese.
Children carrying two large Lebanese flags and adults who trailed behind accused Prime Minister Stephen Harper of being an accomplice to Israeli murder. "Israel terrorist, Harper accomplice," members of the crowd shouted in unison as marchers left a downtown park on their journey through city streets.
Police said more than 15,000 people participated in the rally, making it one of the largest that took place around the world over the weekend.
The picking looks good for a non confidence vote in the House of Commons although Ducepe would not comment Layton seems to see the opurtunity and WHERE are the Liberals ????
I thought they only hid when they were the government?
Wow if we dump Harper over this will the US decide to "liberate" us next ?

You realise 15,000 people is a miniscule amount of people compared to the population of Canada..?
Yes I do - good point - there has been more backlashes than that over Afganistan etc .
