Edmonton's Homeless Residents Stand Firm In Downtown Eviction Standoff
EDMONTON, CANADA - JANUARY 9, 2024:
A member of the determined group of First Nations residents stands resolute, adamantly refusing to leave, as police and city crews prepare to clear the last of eight high-risk homeless encampments marked for removal, on January 9, 2024, in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Central Edmonton's homeless encampment resisted removal as residents, supported by an advocacy group citing a court order breach, stood their ground. The standoff, marked by heavy snowfall, underscored concerns over shelter safety and revealed strained relations between city officials, police, and advocates for justice and human rights.
