Canada: Bush Visit Likely To Stir Passions

Protest organizers are pulling out all the stops as they try to gather crowds in time for a visit to Canada by U.S. President George W. Bush.
Mr. Bush comes Tuesday to a nation where many people are deeply unhappy about his policies. He can expect major protests in Ottawa and reportedly cancelled plans to address Parliament because of the likelihood of being heckled.

His pending visit was the source of lively exchanges Monday in the House of Commons, where opposition politicians pressed the government to use the opportunity to push trade and security issues.

...Mr. Bush's two-day visit was announced only a few weeks ago, leaving little time to rally demonstrators. But protest organizers, who say their intentions are peaceful, hope to get thousands of people into the streets.
