Saw this on the news and was appalled.
What was even worse is when you read the comments section on the CBC news site, there are numerous people saying that we should all chill out and that it was fun and we are living in a nanny state etc etc!.
Am I missing something here...or is flying into controlled airspace near a busy international airport, near a major tourist event...on a lawn chair with balloons, WITHOUT permission....actually a good idea??
Please tell me I am not going crazy!?

I know which form to fill in for a bird strike, but damned if I can find one to complete if one hits a guy on a flying a lawn chair!
