Overview
- TTC chair Jamaal Myers apologized for confusing posts about shutdown times and said the last subways left Union around 1:45–1:47 a.m., with Line 2 connections near 1:55 a.m., after contingency plans were not activated.
- A City of Toronto message on X stating that 'transit won't wait' around 12:08 a.m. drew sharp criticism and fed confusion as videos showed angry fans confronting staff at Union Station.
- Myers will introduce a TTC board motion to establish predictable late-night transit for major special events, a step supported by Mayor Olivia Chow and Councillor Josh Matlow.
- Metrolinx said it added and held late-night GO and UP Express trips as long as operationally possible, citing track ownership and crewing constraints, and the transportation minister noted final GO arrivals around 3:30 a.m. and buses at 4 a.m.
- TTC and Metrolinx officials say they will apply lessons from the night and improve joint planning and communications for large events.
