Bush's Canadian Visit
How does everybody else feel about Bush's Canadian visit? It seems like it's going to be pretty high profile.
He's coming to my hometown (Halifax) Wednesday morning, and might actually be driving by my apartment building to get to his destination (I overlook one of the main roads in Halifax). I've already seen quite a few posters from different groups organizing protests. I've also seen that they're setting up a very large area outside just for the protesters.
Despite my dislike for Bush, I do hope that everything is peaceful and doesn't turn out to be as big a deal as I'm thinking. I, personally, am going to stay away from the protests, but mostly just because I'm worried about what could happen.
I'm not really sure why he's decided to come to Halifax, other than to thank some of the families that took in stranded travellers on 9/11. I think it's a little late for that though. That was years ago now.
