EDMONTON — Premier Danielle Smith says she's pleased the University of Calgary moved to have police dismantle an on-campus pro-Palestinian protest and hopes the University of Alberta will take note.
She said peaceful protest is fine, but rules must be followed and students’ education should not be disrupted.“I think what they found in Calgary is that a large number who were trespassing were not students, and we have to be mindful of that. The university issued protesters a trespass notice. When they would not disperse, police were called in.
McCauley said the university respects and values protests within the confines of the school's safe operation. Early-rising demonstrators, most in their early 20s, sipped coffee, chatting in camp chairs underneath an awning.
