Breaking !

Ottawa, Canada

In Ottawa, about 100 protesters, mostly young students, took over a major intersection a block from Parliament Hill to protest the war.

War is Terrorism with a Bigger Budget, said one sign. Dead Iraqis Don't Vote, said another.

Cheryl Clark, 19, said she came to support the Iraqis. "We have to show our solidarity with the Iraqi people who are being killed by the occupation," Clark said.
Mark Donald, 18, agreed. "We have to show George Bush that the world opposes what he's doing in Iraq."

Protests in Fredericton and Halifax also drew about 100 people each.
