Here's the interesting part about those 73 arrests: (Source: CTV News)

"Those arrested were intercepted at the entrance to the site, police say, and never made it through the gates. Of the 73 people, five were minors....The arrests were for offences related to drug trafficking and consumption as well as for weapons-related offences. Eight people were treated for being intoxicated, though police spokesman Cst. Raphael Bergeron could not say whether they were intoxicated by drugs or alcohol."

If this is what it takes to reduce injuries and fatalities at festivals from now on, then so be it.
