Was it really 2.5 million? That is 15% of the entire population of Canada and would be an absolutely incredible number. For perspective that is the equivalent of 50 million Americans in DC.
It's closer to 7% of the population..
I'd say the biggest crowd I've seen to far has been 50,000 or so in one area. Wouldn't be surprised if there were another 100,000+ dispersed in the streets nearby.
I'd say it's possible that 2.5 million people have been in the city at the same time during this, including the local population. Or maybe 2.5 million people total have been in Ottawa in the past week. Many supporters came from Quebec and went home, now others have shown up this weekend. A revolving door of supporters from all over is perfect to keep the energy fresh.
We could always just ask the Canadian government how many people have been there... They're openly tracking all our phones anyway.
Definitely not. That's nearly 3 times the population of the city of Ottawa. I googled that quite easily. Probably more like 10-15k. Which is still massive.
