The son of a Canadian pastor who faces jail time for preaching to truckers who blocked the US-Canada border last year received a standing ovation in EU Parliament as he slammed PM Justin Trudeau for taking 'freedom and democracy' away from citizens.
Nathaniel Pawlowski's father Artur Pawlowski potentially faces 10 years in prison after he delivered a 19-minute speech to truckers who were protesting federal vaccine mandates by blocking the border in early 2022.
'I am here today in desperation, a cry for help,' Pawlowski, 23, told members of the EU Parliament on July 4. 'I would like to stand here and tell you all the things about freedom and democracy that I like, but I no longer know those things.'
'They have been taken away from us Canadians. Canada has fallen.'
Nathaniel also likened Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to 'a modern-day Caligula,' saying that 'We cannot allow these mad emperors to run mad. And remember, all of this is being done under the guise of health, safety and protecting us by stripping our rights and ushering in tyranny.'
Pawlowski was found guilty in May of mischief and breaching a release order. He remains under house arrest as he awaits a court date on August 9.
'We no longer have freedom of religion, or freedom of speech, or the right to protest or assemble or associate or express ourselves or have free media or disagree with the government,' Nathaniel Pawlowski said.
'Anyone who does so is arrested, charged and jailed as political dissidents.'
Pawlowski was arrested by the Calgary Police Service (CPS) five times after he continued to conduct services in defiance of a court order.

Applause is cheap. I’d like to see what action they take on Canada’s behalf.
Justin Trudeau has $97 million. Odd since he never has worked at a regular job that would pay such an amount.
