Makeda Martin stands in the middle of a plywood shack on the side of the road making a meal fit for the most finicky of foodies. On the menu: Buffalo meatballs, spinach and cilantro salad, and salmon risotto. All made from ingredients she says were supplied by nearby residents in the Vancouver suburb of Burnaby, B.C. “We feel so safe and welcome here,” says the tall, lanky 55-year-old, hand on her hip. The shack is part of a larger installment called Camp Cloud, which is home to up to 20 protesters. The camp sits across the street from a Kinder Morgan facility — the battleground of.

(Maryse Zeidler/CBC) Hundreds of people, have been arrested here. Camp Cloud sits across the street from Forest Grove — a quiet, tree-lined suburban neighbourhood where gangly-limbed children in shorts roam cul-de-sacs, playing after school. Many residents oppose the pipeline project, but that doesn’t mean they support the camp and the protesters. Some are concerned about the growing number of protesters living by the side of the road.
They say there have already been skirmishes between residents and protesters and they worry about sanitation issues and fires. Hundreds of people say they want the city to disband the camp.

(Darryl Dyck/The Canadian Press) May Chu, 38, lives a five minutes drive from Camp Cloud, and has participated in some of the anti-pipeline protests that have taken place in Burnaby and Vancouver, often taking her two kids along with her.

(Maryse Zeidler/CBC) May Chu is opposed to the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion, but does not condone Camp Cloud. (Maryse Zeidler/CBC) The camp, which began as just a trailer on the side of the road, has become a small shanty town of assorted semi-permanent structures adorned with anti-pipeline slogans. Chu said she’s worried campfires and cigarette butts could ignite a brush fire that could quickly spread. She also points out that the camp hugs the blind corner of a hairpin turn, with protesters often milling about on the road. Some residents on a neighbourhood Facebook group have complained about verbal altercations between residents and the protesters.

Unlike Camp Cloud, the Watch House is a single structure nestled in the woods. Nearby, a support camp with a few large tents and an RV sit in a neat row in a sports field, powered by solar panels.
The contentious nature of the pipeline debate keeps Chu and others like her from speaking out too loudly about her opinions. “We’ve been viewed as pro-pipeline, which is completely not the case. We’re just concerned about safety,” she said. The Watch House, run by the Tsleil-Waututh First Nation, is another protest camp in Forest Grove. A support camp is in a nearby sports field.

The sacred fire burning below a tarp, she says, is well-ventilated with plenty of water and sand close by to put it out.
As for sanitation, she touts her skills as a trained chef to support her claim that the camp’s kitchen is clean. Martin has been part of the environmental movement since the Clayoquot Sound protests in the late '80s. As a professional film actor, she says her work schedule provides enough flexibility to allow her to carve out time for activism. Makeda says most of the neighbourhood’s residents support the protesters and their cause.

He asks the driver if he's Indigenous, and what rights he has to the land. After a brief exchange, the driver rolls away. 'I’m totally for it' One resident who supports the camp is Meagan Carver, a mother of two young children who runs a small business dealing with antiques. “I’m totally for it, to be honest,” she said.
“It’s temporary and it’s better than the tankers that will be coming so close to my kids’ school.” Carver says she appreciates how both camps raise awareness of the pipeline issues. She notes some neighbours view the camps as an eyesore, but says most people support them.
