Of course they should. If you have 3 pedestrians walking side by side the same direction blocking the entire space on a section like, oh......west side of main between Assiniboine and QEW, then yes they should move, just as they should move if there were pedestrians coming the other direction.
People should be walking on a sidewalk in such a manner that there is no problem for: a faster pedestrian to pass them, pedestrians coming the other way, wheelchair, skateboard and (OH MY GOD) a bike to get by.
If you're walking in the middle of the sidewalk in a way that nobody can get by and then bitch because you had to move for someone else to get by regardless of pedestrian, cyclist, etc. That's on you.
