1/ My firm took cell calls today from arrestees at Grouse Camp in #argentaBC on Sinixt tty against old growth logging conducted by Cooper Creek Cedar Ltd.. Observations:
- RCMP CIRG officers arrested 17, many of whom appear not to have been in breach of injunction.
- RCMP CIRG officers arrested 17, many of whom appear not to have been in breach of injunction.
2/ - Many arrestees were not given a chance to avoid arrest and had no intention to get arrested but were removed from the area by the CIRG led by Jason Charney. Cooper Creek staff then took steps to clear the camp.
3/ CIRG activities repeats patterns from CIRG-led raids on #Wetsuweten tty and at #Fairycreek : goal is to clear territory for industry and arrests are often for illegitimate legal reasons. Many of the arrests today appear to be without a strong legal basis.
