Subhead:Calgary free-speech battle enters a new phase following Calgary street pastor’s arrest.#
Calgary street pastor Derek Reimer has been arrested this afternoon after refusing to comply with a court order requiring him to write a formal apology to a Calgary Public Library manager.
The case stems from Reimer’s opposition to a drag queen story hour for children held at a Calgary public library. During the controversy surrounding the event, Reimer had an interaction with library staff and later posted online about the library manager involved, identifying her and criticizing her in connection to the drag programming.
