With trial against jailed pastor, Alberta gov’t will have to use COVID science, stop ‘fear-mongering’
‘It is a travesty of justice to have a pastor in jail for not complying with unscientific and unconstitutional health orders in respect to which the government has not provided any evidence, only theories,’ said the lawyer defending Pastor Coates.

(LifeSiteNews) — The head of the legal group representing jailed Canadian Pastor James Coates says the Alberta provincial government will soon be forced to tell the facts about COVID, instead of merely practicing “fear-mongering through press conferences.”
In an interview with LifeSiteNews, John Carpay, who serves as the president of the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), said Coates’ upcoming trial scheduled for May 3 to 5 will — for the very “first time” — force the government to show its evidence for backing lockdowns which restrict church attendance size.
“It is a travesty of justice to have a pastor in jail for not complying with unscientific and unconstitutional health orders in respect to which the government has not provided any evidence, only theories,” Carpay told LifeSiteNews.
Carpay said that Coates upcoming trial will force the Alberta government under Premier Jason Kenney to disclose to the public the COVID “science” rather than engage in daily press conferences.
