Makeshift vigils have popped up in public spaces in Toronto’s Greektown as the city grieves for the victims of the mass shooting on Sunday night that has claimed two lives, and left another 13 individuals in hospitals with injuries.

Chalk drawings on the sidewalks of Withrow Park, candles, flowers, and messages of hope are just some of the ways Torontonians are showing their support for the neighbourhood.

Residents shocked by the tragic events have also set up crowdfunding pages to support vicitims, made a call for donations of blood, and rallied behind the neighbourhood’s most iconic street festival in solidarity.
