Too much noise, says CBC of Canadian Idol jollity
Toronto — During Monday night's preshow festivities in Toronto for the live taping of the reality show Canadian Idol, two mounted police, a cruiser and a police van descended on the scene. Apparently, police were responding to a "noise complaint" from across the street, where public broadcaster CBC looms over Idol's home base, the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.
Police confirmed to the CTV crew that the complaint originated from a CBC staffer. The CBC these days is smarting from the dismal early ratings for its talent showcase, The One: Making a Music Star. Police surveyed the crowd of 1,000 Idol onlookers gathered just before 8 p.m. and, after inspection, said no noise bylaws had been compromised. CTV confirmed the story, adding "they were amused." |
The fact that the cops would even respond is pretty sad.
Toronto's new slogan:
Toronto, the city that fun forgot
Kudos to the cops though for not laying charges... but i wonder if the same thing would have been the case had it been a nightclub?
