I’m watching the movement build in real time. Radio interviews, network video interviews. Widespread condemnation of Christian prosecution from pastors and Christian Networks. Definitely a martyr complex being built in.
Main theme is God’s commandments and laws supersede secular laws.
Applied outside of Public Health, this poses a significant law enforcement conundrum and legal nightmare.
Canadian Christian lawyer institution (Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms ~ JCCF) intends to take the denial of Christian religious freedoms during pandemic to Supreme Court of Canada.
I would suspect the same strategy is or will be attempted in US.
Several churches in different provinces are filing cases to sue for denial of constitutionally guaranteed religious freedom. BC, Manitoba, and Alberta.
Recent protests by Christian Nationalists and white supremacists involved tiki torches.
Local police refuses to acknowledge significance of tiki torches, claiming ignorance of any connection to racist or fascist symbolism.

What most don’t realize is that Singh completely understands the division of responsibility. What he’s doing repeatedly is selling acceptance of nationalization of all authority.
Meaning, he’s promoting autocracy replace the constitution.
People keep stating Jagmeet Singh doesn’t understand section 90 and 91 of the constitution.
He does understand. What he’s doing is recommending the federal government override those sections and impose central authority to get policy implemented.
That’s a big difference.
We must stop mislabeling politicians rhetoric and call it out for what it actually is.
Singh is repeatedly recommending a central overall authority.
But that’s not how Canada is set up. Canada is a confederation of 13 separate authorities. Ten provinces and 3 territories.
If you read through every tweet, you’ll recognize many of the same tactics were used by Harper and CPC that Trump used to damage American democracy. His party was plagued with many of the same kind of scandals and corrupt politicians.
The similarities are uncanny and impossible to miss. A telltale sign that this strategy is planned, coordinated and organized.
If you look elsewhere across the globe, you’ll notice it’s the same story being repeated.
Other pastors from across North America have been spreading the lie that pastor Coates is being prosecuted for preaching about god. He’s being prosecuted for flavouring the public health orders for public safety from covid for months.
This is no longer local. Evangelical Christians have elevated him to martyr status. And this is being propagated across Canada, US and Mexico at evangelical pulpits, on social media and network Christian news.
All because a pastor refused to follow the public health orders.
This feeds into Q’Anon and Christian Nationalist narratives.
Children are the preferred vector for covid variants.
It’s not rocket science, just regular science. Behavioural science would inform you that children have the most difficulty keeping distant and wearing a mask appropriately. They don’t understand the consequences.
A simple explanation that there wasn’t enough evidence to charge people with a hate crime is one thing. Offering apologetics for being ignorant of what a tiki torch stands for is quite another.
Antifa activists identified several prominent white supremacists in attendance.
There is no doubt in anyone’s mind, including the Chief of Police, what this rally was about and who was marching.
Unless you live in your mom’s basement with no wifi, it’s crystal clear this was a racist rally.
Four officers punched in the head is not a peaceful rally. In any stretch of the imagination. Even if it was only one attendee. Doesn’t matter. Four police officers were attacked.
Can’t imagine they and their families are happy about being devalued, & their injuries minimized.
