University of Toronto gets injunction to clear encampment

An Ontario court has granted an injunction to the University of Toronto to clear a pro-Palestinian encampment on school property, writes Tyler Cheese for CBC News.

The Ontario Superior Court of Justice ruled on Tuesday 2 July that protesters must take down tents in an area known as King's College Circle by Wednesday 3 July at 6 pm. The ruling by Justice Markus Koehnen also gives Toronto police the authority to arrest and remove anyone who refuses to comply with the court order.

The injunction allows the protesters to demonstrate throughout the campus, but prevents them from camping, erecting structures, blocking entrances to university property and protesting on campus between 11 pm and 7 am. "As a result, the injunction does not limit the freedom of expression that the law provides," the judge wrote in his decision.
