Toronto Mayor John Tory says there will be 'lessons learned' from the incident that unfolded on Saturday at Trinity Bellwoods Park.
“Lessons will be learned, including by me, and we will move forward and hopefully do better,” Tory said during an interview with CP24 on Monday morning.
He noted that had police and bylaw officers known this type of crowd would gather there on Saturday, they likely would have provided more resources to the area. Tory added that the city is looking at various solutions to prevent this type of crowding in the future.
