A protest march on climate change brought thousands of people to the streets of Paris, including some agitators who scuffled with police and drew tear gas in response Saturday.

Peaceful participants marched in the south of Paris to demand urgent action from the government and corporations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, save the burning Amazon rainforest and stop the Arctic from melting.

Police used tear gas on and around the Champs-Elysees avenue, Saint-Lazare train station and Madeleine plaza, areas where officials had banned protests this weekend. Most demonstrators didn't wear the motorist safety vests that gave the movement its name. Paris police said at least 106 people were arrested and 1,249 security checks took place. Over 100 people received 135-euro fines for demonstrating in a banned area.

Some other monuments, including the Arc de Triomphe that suffered damage during a yellow vest protest in December, were closed to the public.

Canada is special.

While macron tells Trump what to do his people suffer. Trudeau and Macron both act like they are the essence of virtue while they poll in there own countries less then Trump in his.
