Some tents and belongings are left behind fencing surrounding Core Community Park in #Regina. A security guard told me nobody was allowed to stay at the homeless encampment overnight (It began getting dismantled yesterday) He says clean up should continue at 8am @CJMENews #YQR

A tense situation as people shout “We need more time” at the homeless encampment at Core Community Park. Police and fire are here as the encampment is dismantled. Streets are closed and a fence is going up @CJMENews #yqr

A lot quieter now as a handful of people gather their belongings. Tents remain with police tape around them, and a fence now encircles the park

By all accounts, this is the home hit hardest in Waldheim. The family described their ears popping and water rising out of their gutters before the tornado hit. The family of four is all safe, though the damage is significant. @CKOMNews @CJMENews
