A strike by a broad coalition upset with President Rafael Correa virtually paralyzed the capital, provincial cities and stretches of the Panamerican highway. The protesters are indigenous activists, unionists, environmentalists and members of the traditional political opposition. (AP Photo/Dolores Ochoa)
