The same thing happened with the Iraq war protests both before and after Bush invaded. Massive protests in all the big cities and smaller ones in the small cities, all but ignored by the media. They only mentioned in passing that there even were protests--no footage, no live reports, just crickets. This has been going on with the media for well over 25 years. It all started going to hell after Reagan revoked the Fairness Doctrine. You can trace pretty much everything that's led to the downfall of this country back to Reagan.

"There's no question Canadians are beginning to become worried and fearful," NDP leader Jack Layton said in Toronto. "But more and more of them expressing their views like this opens up the door to some hope."
