However, throughout Houston's speech, the crowd outside grew louder with an increasing number of people protesting about a variety of issues.

If there were a bunch of people protesting a bunch of different things, it would be irresponsible to declare the supporters of any one particular issue to be the ones who did this.

ok, they expanded it a bit now: However, throughout Houston's speech, the crowd outside grew louder with an increasing number of people protesting about a variety of issues, including the ability for Mi'kmaq to regulate their own cannabis sales, the province's plan to promote fracking and mining, and the need to observe treaty rights.
