Police officers talk at the scene where a man was found dead at a tent city at Oppenheimer Park in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver, B.C., on Wednesday October 15, 2014. A B.C. Supreme Court judge granted a court order last week allowing the city to clear tents and campers from the park after 10 p.m. Wednesday. The encampment began in July when people set up tents to bring attention to affordable housing in the city. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Darryl Dyck.
