Former British MP George Galloway speaks to supporters at a town hall meeting in Toronto, Oct. 3, 2010.
He is slated to deliver the same rousing account of his pro-Palestinian activism that he gave by satellite link from New York last year when he was banned as a terrorist supporter by the Canadian government, then again last month at a United Church in Toronto, when that ban was overturned in Federal Court.
