Canadian priest calls on clergy to join Freedom Convoy, says ‘Church has let us down’
by
Fr. Anthony Hannan accused bishops of being ‘followers’ not ‘leaders,’ and encouraged clergy to assist the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa.
(LifeSiteNews) – Canadian priest and YouTuber Fr. Anthony Hannan sent a message of support to the Freedom Convoy, urging Catholic priests near Ottawa to help and saying that the Catholic Church “has let us down” over COVID mandates.
Fr. Hannan made the comments in a short video message released as the Freedom Convoy was nearing Ottawa to protest the COVID-19 injection mandates and demonstrate for freedom.
He offered a personal message of support to “all the truckers and all those involved in the convoys,” saying “you’re doing the right thing.”
The truckers’ convoy is reportedly set to remain in Ottawa until Trudeau’s Liberal government resigns or the COVID mandates are lifted, but Fr. Hannan urged Canadians not to wait for such an eventuality. “We just need everyone to stop complying, so it’s unenforceable,” Hannan said.
“If everyone stops complying, they will not be able to enforce their ridiculous mandates,” he added, encouraging businesses in Ottawa to defy the mandates and open their doors for custom.
“I realize that the Church has let us down,” he stated. “Not only here in Canada but around the world.”
