Vote: Do international summits have a future?
But the G8 leaders say that the format of future summits will be changed in a bid to limit disruption. Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien said next year's summit would be held in a remote Rocky Mountain resort instead of his country's capital Ottawa, and would be limited to 350 delegates. This move followed a weekend of rioting in Genoa by anti-globalisation protesters in which one young Italian man died and hundreds of people were injured. Do international summits have a future? Vote now. This is not a representative sample and the figures do not necessarily reflect public opinion.
