A judge has granted Université du Québec à Montréal a partial injunction against pro-Palestinian protesters who set up an encampment on its downtown campus earlier this month.
A pro-Palestinian activist walks through a new pro-Palestinian protest encampment set up on the grounds of the University of Quebec at Montreal, in Montreal, Monday, May 13, 2024. A judge has granted the university a partial injunction against pro-Palestinian protesters who set up an encampment on its downtown campus earlier this month.
Protesters have also been ordered to ensure doors, windows and walls are clear of obstructions; to remove cardboard blocking security cameras; and to allow representatives from the school and fire department to visit the camp to make sure it's safe.Protesters had said the security corridor requested by the school would force them to dismantle their camp, an argument that Gouin rejected.
On the other side, lawyers for the protesters said the encampment members had already taken steps to clear exits, and that the demonstration was safe and peaceful. In a statement on Monday, the school said it was counting on protesters to respect the judge's decision, which it said would ensure safety and free movement on campus.
