They always march in empty streets. It is sad. I don't know if there is an attempt, but I do think the attempt could be greater. The only outlet I saw report it was CTV in my original post and I didn't see anything about the parade afterward. I would say 75% of the people who witnessed the parade did so accidentally.
I caught basically the whole parade. My timing was off, so sorry if someone went down there and didn't see them. I didnt't get down there until 12:45 pm and I thought I had missed them already but then I saw a cop car on 5th ave at the beginning of the route so I darted over that way and sure enough, there they were:
I doesn't look like they did the mass as in years past. They stopped in fron of City Hall as Aeneas described (hah) for a brief ceremony and then continued on down Stephen Ave.
My second favourite marching tune:
