Tell us: Do you feel safe in your city?


It’s been a week since the shocking van attack that killed 10 and injured 14 others on one of Toronto’s busiest intersections.

Although the van attack has joined the list of one of the deadliest mass murders in recent Canadian history, the country’s terror threat remained unchanged following the incident.

Shortly after the attack, Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale made a statement on why Canada’s risk level remained unchanged:

“The events that happened on the street behind us are horrendous, but they do not appear to be connected in any way to national security, based on the information available at this time,” he said.

“There is no information available to me at the present time that would lead us to conclude that there should be a change in risk level.”

In the days following the attack, the risk level remained unchanged.

As the city slowly starts to come to terms with the incident, heightened measures of security have been spotted at major landmarks like Union Station and Rogers Centre.

While most reactions to the extra security are positive, some think it’s too much:
