The soup was taken to the Ontario legislature: the police

A suspicious package delivered to Queen's Park on Tuesday was revealed to be a packet of powdered sauce following a police investigation.

The Toronto Police Service (TPS) said officers were called to the Ontario Legislature at 11:30 a.m. to report a suspicious package.

According to the police, employees were evacuated from a small area of ​​the building.

Later, an explosives unit officer found that the package contained powder sauce. Police believe the item was made as a prank, they said.

It's the second time in a week that the gravy delivered to Queen's Park has hit the headlines. Last week, Prime Minister Ford was presented with a jar of the sauce by Liberal Parliamentary Leader John Fraser. The gesture was meant to remind the Fords of their family motto: “Stop the lawsuit train,” Frazier said.

It is unclear whether there is any connection between the two instances.

Reached for further comment on Tuesday, the Prime Minister's Office said it had no information on the matter. CTV News Toronto also reached out to Fraser.
