Titre : Quebec and the Summit of the Americas
Description : (La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)
On Friday and Saturday (April 20-21, 2001) protestors in Quebec City smashed down barricades and threw stones at police in protest of the Summit of the Americas. Leaders from 34 nations of both South and North America gathered in Quebec to discuss a potential free trade agreement that would span all the Americas. U.S. President George Bush is one of the leaders who attended the conference. The protestors believe that such an agreement would further impoverish smaller, less economically developed countries in the Western Hemisphere. This true-color image of Quebec was acquired on April 19, 2001. Quebec City is located on the St. Lawrence River, which bisects this image from lower left to upper right. Montreal is at the lower left, also along the St. Lawrence.
