Canadian pastor arrested on tarmac over COVID rules says police confiscated luggage, snooped laptop

The Polish-Canadian pastor who has been repeatedly arrested for holding church services in Calgary, Alberta, said Canadian border police confiscated his belongings and apparently broke into his personal computer.

When Pastor Artur Pawlowski landed back in his home city of Calgary on Monday following a four-month tour of the United States, customs officials were waiting to cuff him on the tarmac for two criminal charges, he told Fox News in an interview.

"They have fallen to a new low," Pawlowski said of the Canadian authorities. "Our lawyers contacted them and asked them if there are any pending warrants for me when I was in the states. They said that there are no pending warrants, there is nothing outstanding."

Pawlowski had been traveling throughout the United States over the summer to spread his warning that Western governments increasingly resemble the communist regime in Poland he fled as a young man.

His tour followed the international attention he received in April when officials went to his church in Canada during Holy Week to inspect it for COVID-19 compliance. Because they entered the sanctuary armed and uninvited during a worship service, Pawlowski refused to speak with them.

Instead, he accused them of being "Nazis" and shouted them down until they agreed to leave. Video of the encounter went viral.

Three weeks later, officials returned with a court order authorizing them to access Pawlowski’s church and arrest him if he failed to comply. Again he demanded they leave the church property and contact his lawyer.

On May 8, a motorcade of Calgary police vehicles pulled over Pawlowski and his brother to arrest them in the middle of a highway on their way home from church.

This time, Pawlowski speculated that they misled his lawyers before activating criminal charges against him Monday while he was in the air.

The first criminal charge, Pawlowski explained, was levied against him for failing to wear a mask in public, despite a medical exemption from his doctor. The second was for organizing an illegal church gathering. Both were related to offenses in March and June.

In an interaction he characterized as an ambush, Pawlowski recounted how three officers demanded that he and his pilot step out of the plane. He said he heard one of the officers tell the pilot to surrender his phone, though the pilot refused and managed to record the incident.

'My 12-year-old has to get vaccinated but a teacher doesn't'? Fury as Gov. Newsom mandates shots for ALL California students from 7th to 12th grade - but exempts staff

Governor Gavin Newsom has been condemned for his 'wrong and cowardly' mandate which demands all California students from 7th to 12th grade get the COVID-19 vaccine but does not require their teachers to get the shot.

Social media erupted in outrage Friday night as people pointed out the alarming difference between the rules for children and staff, with many accusing the governor of being influenced by the powerful teachers' unions.

'Kids must get vaccine, but teacher don't have to. The lesson? Kids need a better union,' one person tweeted.

Newsom announced Friday that all elementary through high school students will be required to get the shot once the vaccine is given final approval from the US government for different age groups. 'We want to end this pandemic. We are all exhausted by it,' he said.

This makes California the first state to mandate COVID-19 vaccines for students and comes after it was first in the nation to roll out a vaccine mandate for teachers back on August 12.

However, school staff currently have the freedom to either show proof of full vaccination or be tested at least once a week for the virus.

Newsom's new mandate for students doesn't give children the option to undergo weekly testing instead of getting the vaccine.

Several people took to social media to question why students and not teachers are being forced to be vaccinated and blasting the new rules as being caused by 'political union influence.'

Let's see, if you're rich and well connected and famous you can do as you please, throw big parties and events so no covid worries there. If you're poor and undocumented that's fine too, come on in and don't worry about it - in fact bring tens of thousands of your friends. That'll be fine.

I see little kids standing outside on their school bus stops wearing masks but up until very recently teacher's unions were protesting the vaccine mandate. A coworker told me she's having incredible problems with her 7 year old son who won't go to school and takes several showers a day because he's terrified of the plague. I'm sure he's not alone and God only knows what sort of downstream damage all this horseshit has already caused and we haven't figured it out yet.

I wish I had kept a link to this following story. There was a group of employees who were fighting not to return to work at their building. These same people threw a party and weren’t wearing masks. Go figure.

Is this what's behind long Covid? Sufferers have 'micro blood clots' that may stop oxygen flowing around the body properly

Long Covid could be caused by an overload of tiny clots 'trapped' inside people's blood weeks after they clear the initial infection, scientists say. The small study found patients who are 'long haulers' have a large amount of inflammatory molecules trapped in their bloodstream.

These blockages have the potential to disrupt the body's ability to distribute oxygen and vital nutrients, they said.

It could explain long Covid's most common symptoms, such as fatigue, headaches and breathing difficulties.

The South African researcher who made the discovery said the micro clots may be the cause of long Covid or one of several contributing factors.

Update on the beneficial effects of vitamin D for cancer, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and COVID-19

"COVID-19
Chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and hypertension are associated with increased risk for COVID-19 mortality. [22] Thus, taking vitamin D supplements to reduce risk of these chronic diseases will help reduce the risk of severe COVID-19. In addition, achieving a serum 25(OH)D concentration of 55 ng/ml will reduce by 50% the risk of being SARS-CoV-2 seropositive. [23,24] This level of vitamin D, along with several other essential nutrients (vitamin C, vitamin K2, magnesium, zinc, and selenium) can greatly reduce the risk of viral infection for individuals who have deficiencies of these nutrients. [25-30] However, taking high-dose vitamin D supplements over an extended period can increase the amount of calcium absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Taking vitamin K2 supplements reduces the risk of vascular calcification as well as having a positive impact on osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. [31] Nattokinase is a convenient source of vitamin K2.

Conclusion
There is now reasonably strong evidence that serum 25(OH)D levels in the range 40-80 ng/ml can significantly reduce the risk of the diseases associated with the greatest mortality rates in developed countries. To achieve these levels could take 5000 to 10,000 IU/d vitamin D3, which is safe not only by the Institute of Medicine, [32] but also based on many patient years of treatment with 5,000 to 50,000 IU/d vitamin D3 in a hospital in Ohio. [33]"

Not only are these kids terrified of Covid, I wonder if they are being told they have to wear masks possibly for the rest of their lives. Scary stuff.

Last year's healthcare heroes, this year's social pariahs: How dozens of frontline workers - now dubbed COVID vaccine 'refuseniks' - are being fired, harassed or shunned at their jobs for refusing to comply with mandates



Faced with the prospect of having the shot or losing their livelihood, these so-called 'refuseniks' have opted for the latter, going to bat, and in some cases going to court, in a concerted push-back against a covid-19 vaccine mandate that, they argue, is unlawful, unnecessary and unsafe. Speaking to DailyMail.com, registered nurse Maureen Hurst (right, top left) revealed she was fired last week from the SUNY Research Foundation in Stony Brook, New York, where she worked for 22 years. The married mother and grandmother explained that she is not an anti-vaxxer and, with more than four decades working in the medical profession, the last two of them in clinical research, she is not anti-science, but believes the issue at stake is 'informed consent.' Arlin Cameron, 41, (left, main) a microbiologist and safety representative at Houston Methodist Hospital got a religious exemption but quit five weeks ago after her workplace became toxic and divided over the issues, she says. Physician's assistant Deborah Conrad, 46, (right, top right) faced similar judgment United Memorial Medical Center in Batavia, New York but remains employed.

Disgraceful the schools have come to this point...

...

Straight-A student, 16, is HANDCUFFED and led to jail by cops for trespassing on school grounds after being suspended for refusing to wear a face mask



Grace Smith, a 16-year-old junior at Laramie High School in Wyoming, has racked up three suspensions and $1,000 in fines over her opposition to mask mandates. On Thursday, after two previous two-day suspensions for not wearing a mask, she refused to leave the school building and was ticketed for trespassing. She still refused to leave, prompting officers to handcuff her (left) and perp-walk her into the county jail (right). 'Everybody has the freedom to wear a mask if they choose, but I believe everybody also has the right to not wear a mask if they choose,' Grace later explained.

I think this article linked below is intentional fear mongering and absurd to post about study which has not undergone peer review, I seriously doubt the Johnson & Johnson vaccine effectiveness drops to 3% after only two months...That's ridiculous to even suggest...Anyway I doubt I will get any booster shot, I'm not inclined and nothing has given me reason to get one...I believe the first vaccine shot has done it's job, I've been exposed to covid a few times since vaccination and have not got sick and I'm not taking any unnecessary risks to expose myself...I don't do an annual flu shot, not going to start getting frequent shots for covid...

Get your second J&J dose ASAP say health experts after FDA advisory committee recommended approval of checkered vaccine

Yeah, I certainly do wonder. Maybe they could just stockpile the excess or send it to another country along with all the Ford ventilators that weren't needed.

Regardless of whether these third shots is actually required or not, the blatant fear mongering has affected people - some that caught me by surprise. I have family members out of state who refused to believe me when I told them what it was like around here; too much media input and not enough listening to those of us up to our necks in it. They came hesitantly, fully expecting Andromeda Strain and guess what ? Nope. True, there were one or two very small shops we wanted to go in that required a mask but that was no big deal. No roadblocks, nobody gives a **** if you have a vax card or not. And very few people are wearing masks. And also guess what? Nobody's dropping dead either. Out of 300K people in this county there are 18 people in all three hospitals combined. I guarantee that of them, there are those who are probably classified as covid for one reason or another - maybe legitimately - who might have it but are in the hospital for different reasons. My friend spent weeks in a covid ward in the biggest hospital around here and never suffered so much as a sniffle from covid, yet he was terminally ill. Had he died there it would have been classified as covid related.

I am reminded of the local news when we have a big Northeaster roll in. Everyone goes nuts like they never saw snow before and the media leading up to the beginning of the storm amps everything up to a ridiculous degree. Every word pregnant with disaster - way beyond a simple public service every word is pregnant with anticipation. It's almost fun in a way. With covid I feel as if the storm has passed and here we are days later and yet for some reason everyone is still nuts over it.
