Bylaw officers from the City of Regina have unofficially requested that the
occupyregina camp be shut down under threat of enforcement of
unconstitutional bylaws. We will be holding two meetings tomorrow at 2pm and
5:30pm to discuss our response which will be presented at a rally at city
hall Wednesday at noon.Up until a few days ago, we had an overused camp toilet for people to use
at night. This was good at the beginning, but as our numbers grew it became
impractical. Then the Council Of Canadians generously rented us a proper
portapotty.Thus, a potential hygeinic nightmare was averted… then earlier today city
bylaw enforcement came and took the portapotty away, citing some health
concern but not answering the 2 main questions…How does the portapotty at Occupy Regina constitute a health violation when
the same portapotties are commonly used at festivals in the same park, as
well as on construction sites everywhere, and how can it be more of a health
concern than the situation that could develop from our NOT having one?It has also been brought to our attention that the power cut off by the city
to the park is donated by SaskPower(a crown corp. owned by the people),
which means that the power wasn’t costing taxpayers a cent yet was cut off
leaving campers without power.
