UWaterloo seeks injunction against encampment

Shortly after issuing a trespass notice, the University of Waterloo has officially filed an injunction against the Occupy UW encampment. CTV News reports that the university is declaring $1.5M in damages from the defendants. “Unfortunately, the encampment remains in place in violation of Waterloo policies, and the law,” said UWaterloo President Vivek Goel. “We have said repeatedly … the right to protest does not mean people have the right to endlessly occupy a shared university space.” CBC reports that Occupy UW refused to comment on the legal proceedings.
