Police were on scene Thursday but no arrests were made. One of the demonstrators has applied for the court order to be set aside
The province has escalated its effort to remove a demonstrator group from a North Vancouver overpass, as an injunction has been issued by B.C. Supreme Court banning their activities at the site.
The Supreme Court injunction prohibits hanging or displaying anything, gathering or occupying, and intentionally obstructing or distracting vehicle or pedestrian traffic. The restrictions apply anywhere on the overpass and the area within 250 metres in either direction along the Trans-Canada Highway. The order also gives police the authority to “arrest and remove” any person violating any provision of the order’s provisions.
No arrests were made on Thursday. North Vancouver RCMP were notified of the injunction around noon that day, just after the application was granted, said Const. Mansoor Sahak. Police negotiated with the group, Sahak said, and they left early around 5:30 p.m., whereas they typically stay until 7 p.m. or so.
