LINK Alberta Officials Put Huge Fence Around Anti-Quarantine Church to Protect Public | Val Wilde | Friendly Atheist | Patheos

Edmonton’s GraceLife Church has been complaining for months about how public health measures, meant to limit the spread of COVID-19, are impairing their right to worship in community.

Now they really have lost that right, and they have no one to blame but themselves.

If it didn't get so bloody cold for the better part of the year, I'd happily move to Canada.

Canada has some pretty tough immigration standards for Americans to immigrate there.

@snytiger6 Of course they do.
Gotta keep out the riff raff (Americans).

Just a thought. Confiscate the property, 🤔 raise the building, sell the property use the money towards the community. 😭

How nice it must be to have a Government that actually tries to protect its citizens from their own stupidity!

Justice for all. Glad they shut it down. They need to shut all religious buildings down for good.
