Old habits die hard, but marches such as the one you have mentioned do a lot of good in spreading the word.
It is very sad that those people "don't want to hear".
They are happy to eat the cutlet on their plate, or buy the square-shaped container in the supermarket (neither of which looks anything like an animal, and more like 'dinner' to their de-sensitised thoughts.)
I am very glad to hear that there has been a demonstration like this in Toronto, Catherine.
It is time for us all to be fully conscious about what we put on our plates.
