As many as two million people were at the parade.

"It is disappointing and I'm sure a source of anger for more than just me that anyone would carry a gun and discharge it at what was otherwise a joyous celebration," Mayor John Tory told
CNN.
"I hope those responsible will be held to account to the full extent that the law permits," he said. "I want to commend and thank the millions of other people who happily and peacefully celebrated our beloved Toronto Raptors."
