Burnaby RCMP are on site ‘monitoring’ the situation and have called in an emergency rescue team to possibly remove Terry Christenson from the tree.
Ontario grandfather Terry Christenson, who climbed a tree Monday to protest the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion, could be arrested Tuesday.
As of 9 a.m. Tuesday, Christenson had been camped out in the tree inside the Westridge terminal for 29 hours. A court-ordered injunction remains in place against the protesters. Christenson, a country singer who has twice been nominated for a Juno Award, was arrested after a similar protest in March 2018 in Burnaby.
