The force’s marine unit searched the area.
At around 4 p.m., police said the man had still not been located and confirmed he was part of a tour boat group.
The circumstances surrounding the incident remain unclear.
Just before 5 p.m., Toronto paramedics told Global News they had transported one person to hospital in life-threatening condition.
