The reason Niagara falls had state of emergency:

it can handle approx. 100,000 visitors per day....
One million was expected...
Not enough parking..
It would clog up all main artery roads
In case of emergencies , it would be difficult for Fire/ ambulances etc..vehicles to get through
Helicopter services were put on standby , Province of Ontario for Emergencies.

From reports Gov Sanders isn't shy when it comes to spending the state money, is she a true conservative?

Conservatives are the biggest fcuking spenders.

They only cut taxes for rich people. Everyone else has to pick up the tab.

No Pandit...

According to the Fire Department, Niagara Falls can comfortably accommodate up to 100,000 visitors per day without any issues. 
If more such arrivals occur, it could potentially result in disasters due to limited parking space, compromised vehicle movement, and overcrowding.
It managed to handle a significant number of visitors when an individual decided to walk across the falls on a rope at a height of approximately 300 feet. 


That number of approx. 150,000 visitors resulted in significant traffic congestion and delays.
Safety officials devised a comprehensive plan to ensure the safety of the anticipated crowd of over 500,000 during the eclipse thus the emergency declaration.
The Ontario government will now ensure that it can provide its resources in the event of an emergency.
This includes the availability of helicopters and other necessary resources.

Ya gats dat?
