In court, lawyers for AHS have argued that Pastor Stephens was arrested legally under the May 6 injunction, even though they know that the May 6 injunction had been amended and no longer applied (or applies) to Pastor Stephens
CALGARY: The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms was in court again today on behalf of Calgary pastor Tim Stephens, in jail since Sunday May 16. Alberta Health Services (AHS) has sought to keep Pastor Stephens in jail until he agrees to consent to the violation of his Charter rights and freedoms by Alberta’s public health orders.
Alberta’s public health orders are subject to Charter challenges in two separate court actions, and thus far the Alberta Government has failed to produce any medical or scientific evidence, in either court action, that might justify its public health orders as required by the Charter.
