350,000 march in Toronto against Iranian government
Huge crowds demonstrated globally on Saturday following a plea from Reza Pahlavi, the exiled Shah's son, for a day of action. The biggest rally took place in Toronto with an estimated 350,000 marchers, while Munich police reported 250,000 people listening to Pahlavi. These events support a movement sparked by economic instability that has reportedly claimed the lives of more than 6,800 protesters.
