Okay, so my older daughter was working at the parade this year and while this still isn't official, she's saying that the parade shutdown was likely orchestrated. The article I posted backs this up a bit when you read that Q4P *asked* the Pride grand marshal to stop the parade it was agreed.
You'll remember that Pride's inclusion of the Pro-Palestine cause last year caused all manner of drama. The theory I'm working with is that this year's shutdown may have been an act of defiance against the City and fair weather sponsors.
