Over 15,000 foreign visitors are expected to converge at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre for the G20 meeting June 26 to 27, 2010.
G20 is made up of finance ministers and central bank governors from the European Union plus 19 countries including Canada. G20 nations are Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, the U.K. and the U.S.
Canada Borders Services Agency (CBSA) officials are preparing for a nightmare scenario in Toronto, pulling in hundreds of customs officers from their regular divisions to help check in thousands of G20 visitors.
