After a deadly attack at a Berlin Pride event, Ottawa’s Capital Pride organizers are ramping up security for their August 30 parade, working hand-in-hand with police to review and enhance safety measures. The Berlin incident — a vehicle ramming into a crowd followed by a stabbing — left one dead and 29 injured, prompting Ottawa authorities to reassess protocols. While Capital Pride already funds traffic police for event logistics, any expanded security will be determined by Ottawa police — who will also cover the costs. The new parade route, designed with better crowd control in mind, is part of ongoing planning that’s now more urgent than ever. Beyond police, organizers are training 400+ volunteers in de-escalation and deploying community marshals to boost safety. Mayor and police chief have pledged full support, as Capital Pride reaffirms that safety — even if not always visible — is their top priority.
