    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    A new emergency operations centre — set up by city administration one day after the suit was dismissed — is helping co-ordinate sweeps as evictions continue at an accelerated pace.

    The centres have also been activated for one-day responses during scheduled events, including NHL playoffs games and during New Years Eve celebrations.

    After the lawsuit was filed, plans to dismantle eight inner-city encampments deemed high risk by the city prompted widespread public outcry and an injunction that placed restrictions on how the evictions could proceed.

    Paquette said the current encampment response is flawed, focused too much on bringing tents down instead of tackling the problem at the root.

    Anne Stevenson, councillor for Ward O-day’min, said the number of people accessing help is encouraging and the operations centre is ensuring the response is organized.

    Michael Janz, councillor for Ward papastew, remains skeptical about the pace and focus of the city’s encampment strategy.
