'We are changing the world': Greta Thunberg addresses hundreds of thousands at Montreal climate march Organizers say 500,000 people attend protest, making it largest in province's history Hundreds of thousands of people thronged the streets of Montreal on Friday in a climate march that turned the city's downtown into a sea of placard-waving protesters. To deafening cheers, Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg addressed the crowd at the end of the protest. "We are not in school today, you are not at work today, because this is an emergency, and we will not be bystanders," said the 16-year-old, whose activism has made headlines around the world. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/montreal-climate-march-greta-thunberg-1.52985Trudeau and David Suzuki were there. "This little girl has made more of an impact than all of us environmentalists put together." -David Suzuki
