Amnesty International Canada (ES) AGM 2010 Report
Photo by Don Payne
Anyone who attended our Branch's Annual General Meeting (AGM) from June 25 to 27 will be unlikely to forget it. It was unlike any AGM that had taken place before. For the first time, our AGM was being held at the same time and same place as the world's headlining news event: Toronto during the same weekend that G8/G20 leaders were holding their annual summit.
