St. Paul Winter Carnival: King Boreas Grande Day Parade canceled today

just saw this news about st paul winter carnival and gotta say its a bummer πŸ€•πŸŽŠ. safety is always a top priority but i feel like there wasnt much warning given before the parade got canceled at noon lol. i mean who cancels a major event 2 hours in advance? πŸ˜‚ anyway, glad that safety came first tho, noone should have to deal with protests and icy weather conditions. also its cool that st paul mayor acknowledged the impact of ice activity on the city πŸ‘. but omg can we get some info about what exactly happened with the ICE presence in the city though? πŸ€”
 
I'm kinda bummed they cancelled the parade πŸ€” but at the same time I get why they did it... safety first is always a no-brainer especially with all the crazy stuff going on in Minneapolis today 😬. The temps are wild too, I was thinking of checking out some ice skating events this week but now I'm not sure if that's still happening 🀞. Guess it's just one of those things where you gotta weigh the pros and cons... anyway, hopefully they can reschedule for another time? πŸ’•
 
πŸ€” this is so weird... they cancel the whole event cuz of some protests and then just hint at ice activity? what exactly does ice activity mean in this context? were there any federal officials actually causing a disturbance or was it just a vague excuse to cancel? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ need more info on that before i can believe it
 
πŸ€” I'm kinda surprised they cancelled the whole thing, I mean, it was already known that protests were gonna happen in Minneapolis 🚫πŸ’₯. Still, safety is everything right? And those temps are crazy cold β„οΈπŸ˜·. Glad the mayor's office came out and said something about ICE activity tho πŸ‘€πŸ‘. Can't say I'm mad at the decision, but it's always a bummer when events get cancelled πŸ€•. Torchlight Parade on the 31st is still gonna be lit πŸ’₯πŸ”₯!
 
awww, i feel so bad for everyone who was looking forward to that parade πŸ€•πŸ˜” but honestly, prioritizing public safety is like, super important πŸ™ŒπŸ’– cant blame the organizers for making the right decision even tho it was last min 😬 hope the torchlight parade on jan 31st will still bring the same energy and joy β€οΈπŸŽ‰
