I don't think it's over yet...
...though things in Centretown and the Parliamentary Precinct seem to have gone quiet enough for the night.
We've had at least one reporter ducking beer-can tosses. (A reporter I actually got to say "hello" to once.)
We've had a helicopter violating federal no-fly zones. (Whose pilot ought to be losing their license and soon, over this.)
We've had Confederate, Trumpist and Nazi flags carried by "protestors" alongside the Gadsden flag in the core.
We've had people jumping up and down on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
We've had the statue of Terry Fox on Wellington Street repeatedly desecrated today.
We've had His Trumpness endorsing those bad actors at his latest Nuremberg Stunt tonight.
I've had enough.
I had to pass within breathing distance of several people who looked very much like they were lining up at Blair Station to board the O-Train to join the "fun" downtown, and I was not able to keep my cool about it. Fortunately, we all had other places to be and quickly. (I'm hearing that the Confederation Line was having issues again today, so they might not have gotten there.)
This has not been the best day, despite my staying clear of the epicentre of the mess.
