No eviction for Toronto occupy, Live feed from Toronto’s St. James Park

A lawyer for Toronto Occupy movement has secured an injunction to stop the eviction of those still camped out at Toronto’s St. James Park.

Toronto labour activists had promised to flood the park in a show of solidarity Tuesday night.

Sid Ryan, the president of the Ontario Federation of Labour, pledged to join the occupiers along with other labour activists to "link arms with the Occupy Movement."

"Be aware that if you do not reconsider your heavy-handed decision, you will be adding greater momentum to this movement," warned Ryan in an open letter to Mayor Rob Ford.

"It is not too late to cancel this eviction and instead dedicate your City Council deliberations to addressing the urgent concerns raised by the occupiers, namely protecting public services, creating jobs and eliminating poverty."
