TENS OF THOUSANDS SAID TO BE IN ANTI-PUTIN DEMONSTRATIONS IN MOSCOW AND IT'S NO BIG DEAL


POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUMN IN TORONTO'S GLOBE AND MAIL


Moscow has a population of about 11.5 million people.

Russia's population is about 142 million people.

A crowd of 10,000 is less than 1/1000 of the city's population.

And less than 1/10,000 of Russia's population.

Not a big deal, I think.
