Police officers at the scene this afternoon said no arrests had to be made today.

A total of 17 campers spent the night at the site even though they were asked to leave Thursday.

The group of campers, who call themselves Namegans Nation, set up in Uplands Park Wednesday night.

They are a splinter of the large encampment that filled SaanichB次元官网网址檚 Regina Park from April until mid-September this year and have moved regularly since, under directives from both the provincial and municipal governments.

Its latest site was a piece of provincial land near Saanich municipal hall.
