Pastor Artur Pawlowski says justice has farther to go despite his win at the Alberta Court of Appeal..As the Western Standard reported yesterday, a panel of three judges overturned the contempt of court findings against Art Pawlowski and his brother Dawid for breaching an injunction that prohibited public gatherings during COVID-19 lockdowns. The injunction was declared to be too broad and ambiguous, and therefore should not have applied to the Pawlowskis..Art called the verdict a “big surprise” and an “enormous victory” in an interview with Western Standard..“I still have a hard time to wrap my head around it…It kind of messes me up, because at least in a little part it restores the idea that perhaps the higher courts are still willing to follow the law of the land, which to my knowledge has not been taken down yet,” Pawlowski said..“We still have Charter of Rights and Freedoms, we still have fundamentally guaranteed rights, we still have Constitution, we still have criminal codes.”.The court ordered the $23,000 of fines against Art Pawlowski and the $10,000 for Dawid to be returned, and cancelled the $15,733.50 in costs ordered against them. AHS was ordered to pay its own costs.. “Emails, phones, texts, like it's a gong show. Yeah, it's coming non-stop. Like, since the decision was made public, the phone doesn't stop,” Pawlowski said..“It restores at least a little bit in of hope in my heart that perhaps the justice system is not completely lost, but we’ll see.”.In early 2022, after attending a rally at a roadblock on Hwy. 4 near Milk River, Alberta, Art spent 51 days in jail where he was held in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day. He says he still deserves “restitution” for what he suffered under rulers who did not respect their citizens or their own orders..“We observed politicians, like the Premier Kenney, locking us up, threatening with arrest, arresting pastors and yet breaking the same rules that he implemented on all of us, having parties for his cabinet ministers in restaurants and the sky palace, telling you and me, you're slaves. We are the pharaohs, we are the rulers, we are the tyrants, we can do whatever we want, but you are slaves,” Art said..Pawlowski says his premier and prime minister, and “puppet” justices for them “enslaved four-and-a-half million Albertans.” He compares them to ruler of ancient Egypt who enslaved the Israelites in Bible times, only to have the Red Sea sweep them under..“They're not my pharaohs. They are servants. We pay them to serve and not to enslave us. So, they're hypocrites,” the pastor said..“Every single one of them should be charged for treason for what they have been doing to us. What they did showed us that we are not in crisis because they themselves don't even believe in all those restrictions, mandates and regulations they imposed on the rest of us.”.The Polish-born pastor of Street Church and the Cave of Adullam in Calgary said he respects the law, but he and people of virtue must resist overbearing governments..“It's very important for people to stand up for their rights against tyranny. I am a law abiding citizen. I love law and order. My God loves all law and order. He invented it. However, he hates corruption, hypocrisy, and lawlessness. And for the past two and a half years, that's what we observed..“Every good man, every good woman seeing stuff like this has to stand up against this…We pay them to serve us. We don't pay them to enslave us. But that's exactly what they have been doing for almost three years now. So it's very important for good people to stand up against lies, because that's what we have.”
