This program will discuss some of the problems that have arisen in Canada, our neighbor to the north.  Last week, I discussed the Mexican Holiday Cinco de Mayo. Cinco de Mayo is a holiday that celebrates the date of the Mexican army’s May 5, 1862 victory over a French military force at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War.  Today I want to assess the situation in Canada in which two Christian pastors were arrested because they held church services that the government asserts endanger public health.  I will contrast the actions that the Canadian government has taken against these two pastors with the liberties and foundational beliefs as expressed in the Canadian National Anthem: O Canada.  Specifically, one of the English verses to “O Canada” states: “God keep our land, glorious and free.”  Why would God exert any effort to keep Canada glorious and free, when the Canadian government keeps incarcerating Christian pastors for “simply inciting people to go to church” to worship God?
