MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
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."
On a social media page, protesters naming themselves "People's Park UVIC" confirm the school has issued them a trespass notice, adding the administration has told them to "vacate by 8 a.m.
Protesters at the university have been demanding the school cut financial and academic ties with Israeli entities due to the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.
The latest development at UVic comes about a week after Vancouver Island University in Nanaimo, B.C., launched legal action against protesters there for allegedly ignoring a deadline to leave their camp.
The group also reposted a statement from July 19, saying it is "unfortunately no surprise to once again witness our administration betraying the integrity of this process and emphasizing that these negotiations have been and always will be on their terms."
The recent developments come after an Ontario court granted the University of Toronto an injunction on July 2 that ordered protesters there to dismantle their encampment on the grounds that it is a violation of the school's property rights.
