Standing outside the Eastern Ave. detention centre, Dave Vasey is trembling.
It is about 9 p.m. and he has just spent the past five hours sitting alone in a wire cage, on a metal bench, with few answers.
Most of the perimeter is boarded up with plywood. A dozen police officers watch from behind a fence while more are bused in and out of the building.
“There was very little information given to me while I was in the cell,” at the temporary staging and detention area set up for the G20 summit, said Vasey, lighting a cigarette with shaky hands.
Toronto gets turned into Guantanamo in a couple of minutes. This is disgusting. Just listening to the radio and the police are warning protesters to leave the kids at home. Just who is planning on being violent? Tom
