Corruption in Entrelacs
The residents of Entrelacs have been subject to municipal corruption for over half a decade. The harassment ranges from unfounded fines of barking dogs, to not issuing needed building permits, to filing false charges of attempted murder.
The problems seem to have started for Tony Scafuro five years ago when he attempted to get a permit to build a bridge to join his driveway on one side of a river to his house on the opposite bank. Four homes share this strange situation and while some homes have bridges of their own, Scafuro was repeatedly denied a permit.
The problems since then have only grown for the residents of Entrelacs when a new mayor and city inspector came into power. The residents can’t help but feel they are being forced away from their land by the city officials. Many residents have received repeated and unfounded complaints and fines, other residents have been repeatedly arrested over false charges. This has left the residents of Entrelac terrified to leave their homes or even speak up against this tyranny.
One resident did reach out and did so to Occupy Montreal. After investigating the situation in Scafuro’s neighbourhood it was quickly decided to start Occupons Entrelacs. This new Occupation is in need of your help; we need people interested in spending time in the newly made camp to give the residents a sense of security they have long forgone. Occupons Entrelacs is also in need of camping supplies, food, propane and monetary funds. Help us say No to municipal corruption.
