University Of Toronto,Canada

Toronto Police say it will enforce a court order that says demonstrators at a pro-Palestinian protest encampment at the University of Toronto must dismantle the site by 6 p.m.

WATCH: The University of Toronto has been told it can clear an overnight encampment on its campus, though protests can continue during the day. Sean O'Shea has the latest from both sides.The Toronto Police Service says it will enforce a court order granted yesterday that says demonstrators at a pro-Palestinian protest encampment at the University of Toronto must dismantle the site by 6 p.m. today.

Koehnen says property owners generally decide what happens on their property, and if protesters can take that power for themselves, there is nothing to stop a stronger group from coming and taking over the space from the current protesters.He says that leads to chaos, and his order gives police the authority to arrest and remove anyone who knows about it, which contradicts it.
