The commission has vast experience in welcoming crowds to the park. We have a security team and are always cooperating with the city of Quebec.
We therefore must analyze the type of event we are organizing. When we organize a formal event, with a few invited guests, it is easy to ensure their safety and protect them against threats.
But in this case, we expect to receive 2,000 people, including families, who will camp out in the park for three days and walk about freely throughout the city, and because they are representing the battle of the Plains of Abraham... You must understand that, at the time, the British had not yet arrived. It would therefore be hard to ensure control.
