This news comes less than one week after a huge impromptu car show took over a Cineplex parking lot in Ancaster, to which over 500 cars showed up.

OPP expect up to 1,000 people to show up at this weekend's rally, according to CTV's Siobahn Morris.

“Based on information the town is aware of, this pop-up event is unacceptable for a number of reasons," says Bifolchi.

Police have added also speed bumps to roads and parking lots in Wasaga to deter reckless driving.
