Edmonton's Homeless Residents Stand Firm In Downtown Eviction Standoff

EDMONTON, CANADA - JANUARY 9, 2024: Empty tents and debris are cleared by police and city crews, while a determined group of First Nations residents stands resolute, adamantly refusing to leave, as authorities gear up to clear a homeless encampment near 95th Street and 101A Avenue in downtown Edmonton, 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.
