Canada's support for the USA was clearly in evidence today. Despite the weather, which IS really nasty, I thought the turnout was spectacular down at Nathan Phillips Square. Lots of Stars and Stripes, supporters giving away flags and pro-USA placards - it was excellent! I'd estimate at least 200-300 people.

The best sign, "Nuke Dissent!"

A group of anti-war activists tried to make things unpleasant shouting out the usual slogans but their effort was pathetic, and a lot of CanadAmericans quashed them shouting U-S-A! U-S-A! It was great.

Wish I could've stayed, I'm now back in my office. This is my 1st post, hope it goes through. As an American living in Toronto, it was great to feel the warmth of Canada's support on a very wet, slushy, icy day. THERE IS HOPE FOR CANADA YET!

One of Toronto's anti-American newspapers, The Globe & Mail, reports a crowd of at least 800 "friends of America" gathered at the Toronto rally. The all-news station was reporting a crowd of over 1,000 U.S. supporters -- despite the severe ice storm that saw many Torontonians staying home from work.
