Seems like a gross overestimate

Nevertheless, the footage shows a fairly large and well organized demonstration. There's clearly a lot of money being funnelled into this regime change op.

I am not surprised that the people who hate the government of their former country are in Western countries that support the rebellion. It should be onbvious that Western politicians smuggle fake refugees into their country so that they can use the political activism of those fake refugees to spread false information and gain support to replace accountable lawful democratic governments with corrupted governments in other countries.

Toronto police originally estimated more than 200,000 people would gather at the solidarity rally, which is marching down Yonge Street Saturday.

In a statement to CBC Toronto Saturday evening, Toronto police said the Global Day of Action Rally in Toronto saw crowds estimated at 350,000.

Toronto police spokesperson Viktor Sarudi said the estimate of 200,000 people came in part from discussions with organizers.

I don't trust the cops on the numbers. Especially since the original estimate "came in part from discussions with organizers", and given what kind of "protest" this is, that probably means the cops were part of organizing it, not just tapped for approval.

Comparing those images and videos to the Sydney anti-genocide rally I highly doubt 350K people are there.

The street is around 20m wide and it looks like the protest is covering about 4 or 5 blocks (1000-1250m) and the people aren't packed together so its probably less than 1 person per square meter.
