While they aren’t expecting any problems, Calgary Stampede officials have measures in place to defend against any terrorist attacks.

Tom Sampson, chief of the Calgary Emergency Management Agency, says organizers realize there is a risk of vehicles being driven into crowds.

To deal with that risk, there are barriers in place to prevent that from happening.

More video cameras have been scattered throughout the grounds as well.
