The request for a temporary injunction filed by McGill to dismantle the pro-Palestine encampment installed on its campus since the end of April was pleaded Monday at the Montreal courthouse. Superior Court magistrate Marc St-Pierre, who began hearing the request yesterday, is expected to deliver his judgment.
This Tuesday also marks the 76e anniversary of the creation of the State of Israel, currently at war against the Palestinian movement Hamas in the Gaza Strip. A celebration takes place in Montreal on this Independence Day of the Jewish state.
