To say it put nobody at risk is ludicrous.  It is to late to wait until a bear attacks.  There is a huge difference between a bear in Northern B.C. and one in a residential area.  Once a bear is used to people, it is dangerous.  I have no idea where you could relocate a bear near Toronto without it being a problem.  Bears are extremely fast, powerful and unpredictable.  All you Torontonians have no clue what you are dealing with here
