British Columbia’s attorney general says the government has received a report from a retired judge on ways to improve safety and security at events after 11 people were killed and many more injured at a Vancouver festival.

Premier David Eby commissioned the inquiry into safety at community events shortly after a vehicle tore through a crowd at the end of the Lapu Lapu Day celebration on April 26.
