Occupy NS evicted from Halifax park
The Halifax Regional Municipality ordered Occupy Nova Scotia protesters out of Victoria Park in Halifax on Friday. The city said they were camping illegally. Police delivered the notice to the demonstrators right after a Remembrance Day ceremony. Two hours later, police began dismantling tents. Here are some of your tweets, videos and photos.
- Love and support to @OccupyNS from Newfoundland. This is a terrible way for the city to behave. bit.ly/vLjbUo. The world is watching.
50 police in a line ready to move into Victoria Park to evict. The whole world is watching. #occupyns #occupycanada #occupytogether #ows
@mayorpeterkelly This was a shitty move. I don't know how I feel about @OccupyNS- but I do know that I'll never vote for you again.
Veterans spent hours talking to @OccupyNS about respecting remembrance day, they did, but @mayorpeterkelly decided to dishonor it himself- Eddie Carvery, legendary occupier of Africville, is with us. He moved in and put up a tent yesterday. @Tim_Bousquet @WayeMason #occupyns
Any violence is @mayorpeterkelly's responsibility. Total provocation to evict @OccupyNS in total downpour on Nov11th. Disgraceful.
While @mayorpeterkelly was plotting to evict @OccupyNS, what where they doing? They were laying a wreath at the cenotaph. Thx @Tim_Bousquet
Hopefully the police will evict @OccupyNS today and then our city will no longer look like crap! #timetogohome- Eviction turning violent. Police pushing protesters. Arrests taking taking place. #occupyns #occupycanada #occupytogether #ows
