CBC is reporting the official costs of the event as $713,500, broken down as follows:
- $330,000 for policing
- $62,500 for the City of Waterloo
- $120,000 for regional paramedic services
- $191,000 for Wilfrid Laurier University
- $10,000 for the University of Waterloo
Not sure what those University costs would entail.
The CBC report also notes that a task force has been struck to look for ways to reduce the size of the event over the next two years, and to "refocus" it over the next five years (not sure what "refocus" means in this context).
