Thousands of Toronto Maple Leaf fans gathered both inside and outside the Air Canada Centre on Monday evening, trying to shake off the sadness of the day — a deadly van attack just hours earlier in the Yonge Street and Finch Avenue area. Police use dump trucks to barricade intersections near Union Station, close to the Air Canada Centre where the Leafs-Bruins game was taking place Monday night. He said he believes the city will 'definitely rebound from this,' referring to the van attack. The Toronto Sign has been dimmed and the official flags at Toronto City Hall, all Civic Centres and Metro Hall will be flown at half-mast until further notice to mark the tragic events that took place today. The national charity Canada Zakat, which helped raise over $800,000 for victims of last year's Quebec mosque attack, have started a GoFundMe page with a goal of raising $1 million for the funeral expenses of the van attack victims.
