No, by-law called police when they determined that Cory wasn't going to remove his vehicle.
The ticket he got was under #10 from the parks bylaw.

Ironically he was on the roadway used by city maintenance vehicles and the police pulled into the exact spot once the truck was towed out.

I believe the Mayor has said the City will begin issuing tickets to the occupiers, but can't physically remove people (nor would that necessarily be desirable to incite such a confrontation). I think police can also remove vacant tents.

Police were prepared to physically remove and criminally charge Cory if he refused to leave the vehicle.
We discussed & Cory agreed to cooperate and step out of the vehicle.
Here is a good recap of events
