Toronto’s city manager says little could be done to prevent the widespread flooding caused by Tuesday’s recordbreaking rainfall, adding that the city “is not designed” to handle these type of storms.

A section of the Don Valley Parkway was closed for about 18 hours along with a stretch of the Gardiner Expressway and Bayview Avenue, which remained closed on Wednesday.
