A Broken Social Scene video you won't see on TV

According to an Arts & Crafts release, an anonymous fan of Broken Social Scene is said to be the brains behind a provocative G20-inspired video for the group's anthemic instrumental Meet Me In The Basement from their new Forgiveness Rock Record album recently short-listed for a Polaris Prize.
Since it's unlikely that the potentially controversial juxtaposition of images will ever be shown on MuchMusic – at least in in an un-pixelated form – I thought I'd post it here along with a clip of BSS performing the song at Harbourfront last July.


"This video was made as a response to the G20 Summit in Toronto June, 2010. 
The rest speaks for itself.
It was sent to us by a lover of our music who wants to remain anonymous.  
We are very proud to share this mash-up with you."
