Blockade dismantled at Winnipeg landfill days after judge grants temporary injunction
WINNIPEG — A blockade is down at a Winnipeg landfill where demonstrators have been demandinganother waste facility be searched for the remains of two Indigenous women.
A Manitoba judge granted a temporary injunction to end the blockade at the Brady Road landfill Friday after the city of Winnipeg argued in court it was causing environmental and safety risks. A city official posted the court order, stapled to a wooden board, at the blockade later that evening. A camp set up by demonstrators was still in place and police said they have no intention of removing it.Stefanson cited safety risks as her main reason for opposing a search of the Prairie Green landfill. She pointed to a federally funded study that said a search could cost up to $184 million, expose workers to toxic material and have no guarantee of success.
"We need to put pressure on the federal government. We need Marc Miller to step up," Harrison said."The feds have to take control. This premier is useless."
