- In yet another victory for protesters, a Quebec Superior Court judge has rejected an injunction request to dismantle a weeks-old encampment by pro-Palestinian activists at McGill University.
Justice Marc St.-Pierre wrote in his decision that McGill failed to prove an urgent need to take down the encampment.
The encampment began April 27 amid a wave of similar demonstrations across campuses in the United States over the Israel-Hamas conflict.
As Gloria Henriquez reports, with negotiations between protesters and the university at a standstill, what happens next remains unclear.

Disgusting!!!
... that you feel people should be stripped of their chartered rights. You a commie? If not, then act like it.
That people exercise their democratic rights?
you gonna delete my comment again? like I said before, they have the right to protest here in canada. If canadians' chartered rights bother you that much you are more than welcome to go try out a communist country and see what life with no voice and being silenced for daring to speaking up is like.
@@johnnopeyy4129 That people can squat on private property because of a loophole.
@@asmongoldsmouth9839 That's also the reason that if a valuable commodity is found on 'your' land (like oil, minerals etc) you do not own it, the Crown does.
Just shows the bias of the Canadian judiciary.
Why did the police come tonremive the Jewish students, who were just protesting peacefully, JUST FOR A FEW HOURS, and not remove students who encroach and create campements???
Unfair.
Curious why these people should have a right to protest but people protesting injections aren’t?
Right! Was just thinking this lol
Will injection people vote for the Liberal or NDP?
@@Jeffreybennett-ud2zb did it hurt? the thinking I mean?
@@serioustodayand.. you have nothing
Because they are not blocking traffic or disturbing the residents in the area. All summer school activities are resuming as normal. The professors and staff at McGill have not signed any petition indicating that they are in support of having the protestors forcibly removed. Some of them are Jewish and stand right with the protestors. With over 35K dead, some of these students have decided that Canada should do more to stop Bibi from attacking starving, homeless people in Gaza, who are unarmed and have nothing to do with Hamas. 15k of deaths in Gaza were children too young to even vote for Hamas. I do not think divestiture is the right demand to be making upon McGill and for this reason do not support the protest, but I do support that they have not let this go forgotten. They should require that Joly create an international coalition to force Israel and Hamas to a ceasefire.
Why should we not require foreign, non-essential visitors to not get vaccinated against a highly contagious disease, during the height of a pandemic? That's what the law stated. And many Canadians got vaccinated in order to travel to the US.
Got a better solution. Offer them all a trip to Gaza. Let them see the people themselves. Let them go to the borders and ask those countries why they won't let the Palestinians cross.
Quebec had the worst restrictions in Canada during the pandemic & still voted for the same people. Not the brightest bulbs…
Yes Quebeckers accepted curfews.
@@jeffspicolli593 And put covid patients in nursing homes. Remember?
Its literally one of the highest standard of living provinces in the country. Out of the big 3 cities Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal, Montreal is easily the best to live in the current climate. Housing there is still decently priced, strong economy, hydroelectricity for all, innovative culture and beautiful city that is very walkable and has high quality transit.
@@thecaynuck You are still a bird in a cage. Even if it’s a fancy cage.
Québec Bill 21 was passed in June 2019 and confirmed the province’s secular status. Formally called “An Act Respecting the Laicity of the State,” it sets out four principles of Quebec secularism: separation of state and religion, the state’s religious neutrality, the equality of all citizens and freedom of conscience and freedom of religion.
Public servants, including teachers, police officers and judges, are forbidden from wearing religious symbols such as a hijab, turban or kippah while working.
BTW FWIW it affects new hires. There are grandmother clauses for those hired before the law. Muslim women feel targeted. Their allies are politicians across anglo canada who want muslim votes and want quebec basher votes.
Quite the contrast to the bouncy castle protests that actually affected Canadians directly.

International law was broken by Hamas, not Israel.
Israel's brutality towards innocent Palestinians on a daily basis asked for the trouble.
Also Hamas isn't a country unlike Israel.
It was the IDF that killed the Canadian aid worker among other things have happened there over the years. So wrong, both sides have.
There is info on the web about how much territory the Palestinians have been losing for the last 20 y. The West Bank is essentially all taken over.
I think this is what sparked the war.

This comments section is proof that our education system has failed us. I thought you guys loved democracy so much? This judge made the correct call, quit your whining. Its embarrassing.
These people don't like facts. They just stop responding when their bowels are left empty with nothing else to throw. Only people of their completion are allowed to protest.
no no history has taught us that protesting jews leads to burning more than exist in your country
Stop it. People like you are allergic to facts. This comment is the proof that our education system has failed us but not because of what you bring up. Its all backwards. Has nothing to do with democracy anyway but I guess definition doesnt matter anymore. Making permanent camps on school campus is not democracy.
Only will they act when it's protested against the govt
I will never understand why they are not protesting against Hamas. i guess education is not as it was before.
Because Hamas was an Israeli creation.
Hamas was created and funded by Israel as an opposition party to Yasser Arafat's PLO party. The Israelis believed they could control Hamas through funding by their idea backfired because you can't put a price on people's desire to be free.
Israeli regime the problem not Hamas.
