Environment Canada has issued a rainfall warning for the region. Forecasters say we can expect 20-30mm of rain on average.
But some areas could see up to 50mm if forecasted thunderstorms develop.
Forecasters say the rain could be enough to cause flooding in low-lying areas. They advise people to stay away from rivers, creeks, and culverts.
SPS Board Chair Kelly Ash said the decision followed discussions with Acting Chief Mike Federico and aligns with practices at other police services.
The annual Canada Day parade will begin at 11 a.m. on Saturday, June 27, from Wildwood Park to Kenwick Park.
The $7.6 million project, which also involved water and sewer infrastructure improvements, began in 2024.
The Toronto Blue Jays dropped their third in a row Thursday, 6-5 to the visiting Texas Rangers, and the Detroit Tigers suffered a 2-1 loss to Houston.
The week-long celebration starts on Saturday and continues to next Friday.
Environment Canada said Thursday night that severe thunderstorms were moving further east after rain and high winds affected portions of the region.
