Pastor Artur Pawlowski
The Canada Border Services Agency arrested the pastor last week for two outstanding warrants — one for not wearing a face mask and another for holding a church service in June. He has an upcoming court hearing on Oct. 13, where a judge will decide whether he'll be sentenced to 21 days in jail for "contempt of court" for holding worship services in violation of lockdown restrictions.
“If they came for me, be sure of it, they’re coming for you as well,” Pawlowski, who serves as pastor of Street Church and Cave of Adullam Church in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, told Fox News in an interview.
“What they’re doing today is identical to what I remember growing up,” added Pawlowski, comparing the measures taken by law enforcement officials to enforce COVID-19 restrictions to the actions taken by authorities in his native Poland when it was under communist rule.
“I was handcuffed like a common criminal, like a terrorist,” he said, talking about his previous arrest in May. “They wanted to break me. They wanted to show the whole world, ‘You see what we do to those who dare to speak against our tyranny? If you will follow … you’re next.’”
Pawlowski was born in Poland and lived under Soviet rule during part of his childhood.
A video posted on YouTube in May showed that Calgary Police Service sent at least five police vehicles to arrest him and his brother, Dawid Pawlowski, from on the street. The brothers knelt on the road and refused to walk on their own during the arrest.
A voice can be heard telling the officers, “Shame on you guys, this is not communist China. Don’t you have family and kids? Whatever happened to ‘Canada, God keep our land glorious and free?’”
Artur Pawlowski previously shared a video documenting police visiting his church in April.
In that video, Pawlowski can be seen calmly greeting the officials at the front door. The public health officer presented Pawlowski with a warrant after previously interrupting worship services days earlier during the Holy Week.
As he videotaped the encounter, one of the police officers accompanying the public health officer told Pawlowski, “you don’t have to get into her personal space,” as he attempted to zoom his phone in on the paperwork.
“You’re in my personal space,” Pawlowski responded.
He referred to the officials as “brown shirts” and “Nazi Gestapo communist fascists.”
Pawlowski told The Christian Post in June that police frequently monitored his church services to make sure he was abiding by coronavirus restrictions and social distancing guidelines. He said the intrusions weren't necessary because he streamed the church services online. The livestreams illustrated that “I was not hiding the fact that we are not following those restrictions.”
As law enforcement repeatedly descended on his church services, “the mosques were fully operational.” He added that “no one harassed them, no one interfered with them.”
“Not one Imam was being harassed or intimidated. And to this day, there’s not one Imam or one Muslim that has a ticket, even though we have video evidence and pictures [of] them gathering ... through the whole Ramadan by the thousands,” he said.
Pawlowski’s YouTube channel includes a video of a gathering of thousands of Muslims that took place on the last day of Ramadan, the holiest month in the Muslim calendar, which police allowed without interruption. He estimated that “about 2,000 people, maybe more, were there.”
In March of 2020, Pawlowski was informed that his church, which ministers to the homeless and less fortunate in Calgary, would have to “shut down and stop taking care of the poor.” He refused to obey that order, however, concluding that by issuing “orders to stop feeding them [and] giving them necessities of life, they were sentencing them to death. [And] some of them did die,” he said.
At the time, Pawlowski sent a plea to the ministers in Alberta asking them for an exemption from COVID-19 restrictions, but they refused to grant an exemption and ordered him to shut down.
He’s right ping.
This was never about health and welfare; it was always about changing a country into a tyrannical dictatorship police state using a digital passport and social credit score to micromanage and control the people. Every single person in these governments pushing this should be brought up on treason charges and punished accordingly. Anyone financing these heinous operations should get double the punishment.
Revolutions were fought for less. Canada, the US, and Australia are all in a de facto civil war with their overreaching tyrannical governments. Possibly the UK and EU too.
TRUST ME, IF YOU WATCH JUST THE FIRST 30 MINUTES OF THIS POWERFUL VIDEO, YOU WILL FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT THE HELL’S BEEN DONE TO US, WHY... AND BY WHOM!!!
PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH EVERYONE YOU KNOW!

We have a constitution and we still have our guns
yup. there’s an opportunity to see what American’s who call themselves christians and conservatives are really made of. it’s a time of testing.
Anyone think we are not at the end times?
SMH
It’s only Christians that Satan hates and wants to eliminate.
I guess he still hasn’t learned that persecution only purifies and strengthens the body of Christ.
Amazingly, yes there are.
Just go on to an end times thread and see the number of people poo-poo-ing the idea.
Oh. We know.
However, we still have our guns.
Unfortunately, yes
No we aren’t next because we weren’t stupid enough to give up our guns as Canada did, and nobody sane will now since we are being terrorized. And the alt-far-left are just winging it as they go along. I saw an article of one example, “Fauci Says Immigrants Aren’t Behind New COVID-19 Surges”, and you can give that a look at DailyCaller. Since you aren’t testing ILLEGAL ALIENS then how do you know they don’t have disease?! Also any attempt to take our guns would have to be done all at once across the country without us finding out and they don’t have enough manpower.
...or clone of communist China. That’s what they did. Import China here instead of just the leftists going to live there.
If you aren’t exercising your 2A then you don’t care about yourself. You were ALWAYS your own first responder! Courts have rules that police are NOT required to protect you. And look what Obama (officers) and Biden (enlisted) have done to our military!
Not one Imam was being harassed or intimidated. only Christian Pastors. Yea, Canada is toast.
He’s a guy that has experienced it before, before going to Canada. He grew up on the wrong side of the Wall.
“the mosques were fully operational.”
” any attempt to take our guns would have to be done all at once across the country”. And will you resist when they threaten to take your young children away?
It will be done by cutting off our communications.
