Protestors set up their tents at the Occupy Vancouver encampment in Vancouver, Nov. 21, 2011. A B.C. Supreme Court injunction issued last week required the camp to be dismantled by Monday afternoon. The Occupy Vancouver protest relocated to the provincial courthouse at Robson Square on Monday afternoon following a 2 p.m. court-imposed deadline to clear the Vancouver Art Gallery plaza. Dozens of Occupy Vancouver participants carried their tents, both personal and communal, across Robson Street to the steps of the provincial courthouse as bone-chilling rain poured down. Police and firefighters stood by as tents went up on three different levels of the complex overlooking the Robson Square ice rink. [Xinhua/Sergei Bachlakov] |
