The thing for me is that the Police were ALREADY in the parade, and had been for a few years prior as well if memory serves. It wasn't until the BLM Toronto chapter, most likely desperate for attention since there's no conceivable reason for them to operate in Canada, hijacked last year's parade that there was ever an issue.

Also the police aren't the same as pipe fitters or accountants, I hontesly believe PD in Canada really try to engage in the community in a positive way since it's integral to their duties.
