Former U.S Vice President Cancels Toronto Speaking Engagement

Former U.S. vice-president Dick Cheney has cancelled a Canadian speaking
appearance due to security concerns.

Cheney was slated to talk about his experiences in office and the current
American political situation at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre on April
24.

The event promoter says Cheney and his daughter Elizabeth decided against
the engagement as a result of demonstrations at his appearance in Vancouver
last fall.

He says they decided it was better to stay out of Canada for their personal
safety.

In September, unruly demonstrators who accused Cheney of war crimes blocked
entrances to the exclusive Vancouver Club where he was speaking.

He was forced to stay holed up in the club for seven hours before it was
deemed safe for him to leave.
