I sent this list of methods for removing the protesters to the mayor's office this morning. They didn't think the courts would consider them "reasonable", but I figure Nenshi'd win in the court of public opinion by trying at least one of them:

1) begin flooding the Plaza's skating rink at 3:00 AM with fire hoses. The noise and splashback from the hoses would chase them out of their tents almost immediately. And if the city employees/volunteers operating the hoses should happen to lose contol of the hose and spray the occasional tent. Well, oops.

2) Hire/recruit several bagpipe players from the community (possibly from the CPS pipe band) to begin practicing their instruments at 3:00 AM. Each piper will be required to play a different tune, thus creating a horrible racket which would wake the dead, let alone any sleeping people camping in the Plaza.

3) Repeat playing of the CD "Air Supply's Greatest Hits" between the hours of 11:00 PM and 6:00 AM over the Plaza's loudspeakers. This would not only drive the protesters from the Plaza, but possibly render them sterile as well (I know Air Supply causes my own testicles to shrink....)

4) send in staff from Animal Control to spray the tents - and immediate surrounding area - with dog pheromones, followed one hour later by other animal control officers with a truck full of un-neutered dogs.
