Vancouver police said it determined, through consultations with the City of Vancouver and festival organizers, that dedicated police officers and heavy vehicle barricades would not be deployed at the festival site.

“While I’m confident the joint risk assessment and public safety plan was sound, we will be working with our partners at the City of Vancouver to review all of the circumstances surrounding the planning of this event,” interim VPD Chief Steve Rai went on to say.
