Canadian Pastor Who Defied COVID Ban by Holding Services Sings ‘Amazing Grace’ at US Border

February 1, 2022 by Staff

(Fox News) A Canadian pastor who was imprisoned for holding church services in defiance of the government last year traveled with some of his friends to sing “Amazing Grace” at the Canadian-U.S. border as tens of thousands of Canadian truckers gathered in Ottawa to protest vaccine mandates.

Pastor Tobias Tissen of Steinbach, Manitoba, went to the U.S. border in Emerson, Manitoba, on Sunday to sing the classic Christian hymn, according to footage posted on his Instagram.
