The Vancouver Police Department says last week's public protests during the Trump Tower opening ceremony in Vancouver cost the force more than $100,000. More than a hundred people demonstrated in front of the Trump Tower in the 1100-block of West Georgia Street throughout the day on Tuesday. More than a hundred people demonstrated in front of Vancouver's Trump Tower while U.S. President Donald Trump's sons, Donald Jr. and Eric Trump, took part in a ribbon cutting ceremony inside last Tuesday. A woman adds a sticky note with her message to the wall of Trump Tower during a demonstration in Vancouver.
