When Saskatoon’s branch of the Occupy Wall Street protests set up camp in Friendship Park on Oct. 15, it quickly became a home for the homeless in town.
Since the first protesters took to the streets of New York’s financial district on Sept. 17, the Occupy Wall Street movement has spread to more than 1,500 cities worldwide. About 1,000 cities with active Occupy protests are much farther south, in the United States, allowing the Saskatoon protesters to develop distinctly local priorities.
