UPDATE: He's also banned from travelling. Also turns out the judge literally ran for office under the Liberal Party: https://twitter.com/ezralevant/status/1448377707818012672
The judge is Adam Germain, a failed Liberal Party politician who was given a soft landing by Jean Chretien who appointed him to the bench. Germain was rejected by Albertans; and now in return he rejects Albertans' belief in freedom. It really is an atrocious ruling.

Instead, the judge fined him $42,000, forbade him from travelling till 2023, and ordered him to say the government's political rebuttal to himself anytime he talks about the pandemic.
Pastor Art and his brother was just sentenced. Rebel News' Sheila Gunn Reid was livetweeting but didn't thread it: https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid

Art Pawlowski sentence: 3 days already served in jail. $3000 for breaching Gates order, $20,000 for Rooke order and service hours (which should be easy enough), and probation.

Dawid Pawlowski gets 10K fine and 3 days served and 1 year probation
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448316723292041224
AHS gets costs also - I think over $20,000
Chris Scott of the Whistle Stop Cafe, who started the Great Alberta Restaurant Rebellion, was also punished & is subject to the same script (as is Art's brother): https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448317003089907713
Scott gets 3 days served, 18 months probation, has to pay over $10k in costs and I think $20k in fines 9

Germain is giving the 3 men a specific script that they are obligated to post every time they express a view contrary to AHS on social media or anywhere else - regarding masks, distancing, and vaccines.
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448318316079058955
no one is going to jail today unless they fail to pay those fines in 36 months
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448315777573031941
Holy moly. Germain is saying that the men cannot publicly criticize the public health orders unless they provide the other side of the debate - this includes social media posting.

Germain says Pawlowski's "vicious" statement to the court was a "cry for jail" and he will paint himself as a "martyred Christian". Cites Pawlowki's ability to raise.
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448314369079578624
Germain is upset that Pawlowski went on Fox News and embarrassed the govt and the court system in the land of the First Amendment and Religious Freedom
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448313675656220677
Germain is saying Pawlowski has no right to refer to health officials as Nazis - Pawlowski is a POLISH IMMIGRANT.
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448313272587882502
Germain says that Art's previous statement to the court as a taunt. Says he made himself a martyr, parlayed his title of pastor into a speaking tour. Germain is upset that Pawlowkis went to the United States to tell their story. (if you protest here, they put you in jail BTW)
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448312688942088198
Germain cites an unnamed TV doctor who compared people who don't follow health rules to people who drive drunk- mentions the "people you may kill"
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448312338197532675
Germain just said the sacrifices of the Rooke order - that outlawed protests - would not offend the charter of rights and freedoms.
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448312056478724099
Germain says the Pawlowskis "reveled in their arrest" .....after just saying the men were "arrested in a spectacle" like what we may see in a "third world country" when people protest.
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448310224335474691
Germain: breaches like this "challenge the authority of the court and bring the administration of justice into disrepute" Cites the court's right to "protect its own dignity" "All 3 breaches are in this more serious category."
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448306770556776454
Germain says currently Alberta is in the worst shape ever regarding covid 19. Says Art and Chris are also responsible for the state of covid crisis in Alberta because they caused the public to doubt the severity of the pandemic.

Jessica Simpson (Yaniv), the high profile trans litigant who dragged several female estheticians before the human rights tribunal in BC, is on the webex call for Pastor Art and Chris Scott. I overheard Jessica Simpson has asked for transcripts of this hearing for some reason.
https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448319451024084993
court is done.
Yes it is.
UPDATE https://twitter.com/SheilaGunnReid/status/1448350760094208000
One last bizarre thing:
After the hearing, Pawlowski's lawyer noted to Justice Germain that he didn't refer to one the relevant cases that she presented in her written submissions
Germain replied that nobody's perfect, and that he's human
Did he even read her submissions?!
Democrats can do no wrong. Just ask the Donkey.
