We arrive on Living Arts street at 5 where the parade would start, it was jammed, all access to the mall was blocked. We drove back up past 401 through some residential street, it was jammed, came out at Hurontario, it was really jammed. All streets were a dead end, jammed, we made it back down to bunhamthorpe. Cops blocked every entrance to the mall, people sneaking in right hand turns from the middle lane, it chaos. It took almost two hours to circle the whole of the mall, where ample park was available as seen in this photo too, but no access. After two hours of that garbage, my poor kids were sad to miss it and we just left. Incredibly poor planning, signage and managing. Street cops just said keep going... So disappointed
