VICTORIA — The University of Victoria in British Columbia says it has begun the process of removing the pro-Palestinian encampment on campus, telling protesters they are trespassing on school property.
The school says in its latest encampment update that it has"taken a calm, measured and reasoned approach" to the protest since it was set up on May 1, but administrators"see no further prospect for a successful dialogue."
The group did not specify their plans while asking the public to"stay tuned for updates from camp and plans going forward." "Unfortunately, we have not successfully achieved agreement on the process and timeline for decampment," the school update says. "The university was disappointed to learn of this impasse through social media posts from People’s Park UVic."
