Millennium Park has been 'cleared and secured' but the bigger issue is how permanent Moccasin Flats is becoming.

“Millennium Park cleared and secured,” cheered the City of Prince George press release, as if something meaningful had happened on Monday.

The residents of the encampment and the personal and social problems that drove them to live there in the first place are still here in Prince George. The people are either in supportive housing, other locations or now in Moccasin Flats, the Lower Patricia encampment protected by a provincial court order that also came with an apology from the city for “inflicting serious harm on vulnerable people.”

Before the City of Prince George takes a victory lap over Millennium Park, it might want to make sure Monday’s move is not challenged in court and, if it is, it will stand. The city’s recent track record when it comes to legal advice and acting properly on that advice doesn’t inspire much confidence.
