Oktoberfest has a Liquor Licence. Ezra doesn't.
Oktoberfest has a Maximum Capacity that the Fire Dept enforces. Ezra doesn't.
Oktoberfest serves alcohol purchased for resale (Higher rate than consumers pay). Ezra doesn't.
Oktoberfest pays for security and paid duty police coverage. Ezra doesn't.
Oktoberfest has Insurance. Ezra doesn't.
Totally agree. The Ezra street party and Oktoberfest are at opposite ends of the spectrum of even trying to comply with the law. If Laurier or UW wanted to have a "legal" party on their property, they could go about organizing it and getting the requisite approvals. It is interesting that neither has stepped up - I'm sure they liability scares the crap out of them.
