This is how it went, from what I heard.
An Australian comedy group decided to prove how fragile the security was during the summit, because of course the leaders of the major countries of the world were all there.
So they got into black limosines and put Canadian flags on front and drove through several levels of security, because each group of sentries assumed they were the Canadian Prime Minister and his convoy.
They managed to get right up to the President of the US's hotel before being discovered, and they will be punished accordingly.
Not bad for 24 million dollars A DAY on security for the summit! These people should be applauded, not punished, and the people behind the summit should be ashamed of themselves.

The funniest bit was the guys got out of the limo BEFORE the police noticed anything, and one of them was dressed as Osama bin Laden. I guess they didn't want to risk getting any closer to Dubya's hotel because they were scared they might get shot by Secret Service or something...
Also, they were released on bail and probably won't get gaol time.

Those pranksters were lucky the security personnel were Australians and not Americans. The yanks would have shot them dead on sight.

Yes. It is amazing with what security is supposed to be in this day and age that this can happen.
