Protesters in Calgary gathered outside the Chinese consulate to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre, which took place on June 4, 1989. It was a peaceful gathering, watched by a typically oversized police presence.

This is one of the pictures I took in downtown Calgary of a protest for Tibetan freedom against the Chinese government. Protesters started at Olympic Plaza and marched to the Chinese consulate, which is where these protesters are. The girl is wearing assorted pro-Tibet buttons.
