Opinions Mixed on Whether to Influence or Scrap G8/G20 Summits

Rideau Institute and CAW Campaign Success

interviewed by Peter Mansbridge
(Ottawa) Protests this weekend will reflect a mix of concern over the G8/G20 summits' agendas, and objections to the very legitimacy of the meetings themselves, suggests an online survey of "engaged Canadians" by the Rideau Institute. One survey found that, given the opportunity, 48% of respondents would choose to be "in the room" with world leaders to influence discussions, while 52% would choose to be "in the streets" with demonstrators protesting the meetings.
