Harper confirms June G20 summit in Toronto - The Canadian Press


Prime Minister Stephen Harper confirmed today that Toronto will host the G20 summit on June 26 and 27, 2010. He made the announcement in South Korea, which will host a second G20 summit in Seoul, in November.



The initial plan was to hold the Group of Eight summit in Huntsville, Ont., and the second, larger G20 meeting somewhere nearby. But last month, RCMP Commissioner William Elliott said the area is just too small to host the G20 summit, despite tens of millions in expenditures to bring the area up to world standards.




Good times coming to my city!
