Photos of the protest show they're pretty large, especially for a country with such a low total population. Maybe people just want to be free?

edit: Photos actually remind me of the cease fire protests in Israel now that I think about it. Also a lower population country with a large contingent of upset people in it.

Less than 20% of the Israeli population was upset at their government during the height of internal disapproval when the protests were going on. If that's the standard to overthrow a nation, then Mexican immigrants should be in charge of Canada and the US.

By what measure of disapproval? Not all Mexican immigrants are ready to rise up either.

(And it's only ~0.5% in Canada)
