Jack Layton’s state funeral this afternoon capped a week of public mourning. His casket was carried from the City Hall rotunda, where Layton had been lying in state, and taken, in a procession, to Roy Thomson Hall, where a large crowd gathered outside the venue to pay their final respects to the late NDP leader. Here is a selection of photos of the scene on the streets.
