Protesters at the Parker Lands development in Winnipeg have been ordered by a judge to leave and clean up all their belongings by 6 p.m. tonight.
The order is part of an injunction granted by Court of Queen's Bench Justice James Edmund Thursday afternoon.
Protesters have occupied the Fort Garry property in two encampments since July.
They oppose the clearing of forested areas on the property and argue the area has historical and cultural significance to Métis and Indigenous communities.
Work on the property — which the owners described as "pre-development" — came to a standstill with the arrival of the protesters on July 14.
