W.O.O.D.S.Q.U.A.T. Newsletter
Summary:
This is a newsletter from the Woodwards Squat. This issue recounts the seven days that squatters were inside the Woodwards building and the unifying of the squat. Relationships and roles inside the squat are discussed, such as setting up a kitchen, establishing media and police liaisons, as well as interactions with the police and the initial injunction by BC Housing. Also within this issue is the list of demands of the Coalition of Woodwards Squatters and Supporters (see W.O.O.D.S.Q.U.A.T. Newsletter #2 and #28) and announcements.
