Occupy SJ Gone From King's Square

The Occupy movement in Saint John has moved on.

The last of the tents that have taken up residence in King's Square over the past few months are gone.

Local businessman and movement supporter Habib Kilisli tells CHSJ News the remaining protester packed their bags because of the cold weather and after the city refused them power and bathroom services.

However, he says the city was always respectful to the occupiers

Kilisli believes the movement will still continue despite the recent closures of other Occupy camps throughout Canada and the world.
