Found this picture on Facebook. Yesterday night at 11:00pm was supposed to be the deadline (a "soft" deadline) for the Occupy Edmonton protesters to take a hike.
The police said they wouldn't be arresting them though. They said they would be "working with" them to "find a resolution" or something similar. I doubt that is going to work. Sorry for the cynicism. Who knows though. They could have just went in and arrested them so ... maybe!
Anyway, wouldn't it be nice if when the police do finally do something it turns out to be something like in this picture. I l-o-v-e this picture. So priceless.

I am truly disappointed Canada is not just leaving them. I truly hope that the police do, as they say. Certainly I really would be disgusted if there is any violence used against the protesters.
ReplyDeleteSomehow, I doubt they will end up sprayed with the "rainbow of love". LOL.
ReplyDeleteI just heard their demands on the news today. Pretty unrealistic. I'm sure the police will eventually lose their patience with them.
Hopefully, it will all end fairly peacefully just like you suggest it should.
I think with all the focus on the violent confrontations in the states, Canadian cops should step carefully, or be lumped in with those american pricks....I mean cops.
ReplyDeleteWell Jamie, they did end up kicking them out yesterday. In the middle of the night, of course. To avoid inconveniencing other Edmontonians they said! LOL.
