A number of MLAs in British Columbia have spoken out in support of Sean Feucht, citing his treatment as evidence that Christianity is "under attack" in Canada.Feucht, an American Christian musician, faced pushback from authorities and protestors before, during, and after performing concerts in eastern Canada, with the city of Montreal even fining a church that hosted him.."Make no mistake, Christianity is under attack throughout Canada," OneBC MLA Tara Armstrong wrote in a post on X. "Over 85 churches were targeted after the mass grave hoax and now an American singer is smoke bombed inside a church. Let's rise up and call this out for what it is: it’s HATE on full display. And it must be condemned."Armstrong went on to note that "religious freedom is a fundamental right that is guaranteed under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms," and vowed to "stand to protect it."."Attacking worshipers is a hate crime. Burning churches is a hate crime," OneBC Interim Leader Dallas Brodie added. "The blatant persecution of Christians within Canada must stop.".BC Conservative MLA Harman Bhangu called Feucht's treatment "absolutely disgraceful."."A Christian preacher is threatened with arrest in Canada — for praying in public without a permit," he lamented. "Meanwhile, Hamas supporters have marched through our streets, blocked traffic, waved terrorist flags, burned the Canadian flag, and chanted 'Death to Canada' … with zero consequences."Bhangu argued that Canada has "lost its moral compass," and pointed out the hypocrisy from authorities. "Free speech only applies if you're 'approved' by the woke state," he wrote. "Pray in public as a Christian? Get arrested. Support terrorists? Get a police escort.".Fellow BC Conservative MLA Heather Maahs vowed to walk the talk, and vowed to attend Feucht's upcoming concert in Abbotsford."Let's practice freedom of religion in BC!" she declared..Montreal church fined $2,500 for hosting MAGA-supporting Christian artist Sean Feucht.After being smoke-bombed by one of the dozens of protestors who showed up to his show in Montreal, Feucht learned that the city had fined the church $2,500."This show runs counter to the values of inclusion, solidarity, and respect that are championed in Montreal," Mayor Valerie Plante's spokesperson, Philippe Masse, said. "Freedom of expression is one of our fundamental values, but hateful and discriminatory speech is not acceptable in Montreal." Masse said the church had violated city regulations by proceeding without permission.
