This week on the Alberta Roundup with Rachel Emmanuel, Rachel interviews Calgary Pastor Derek Reimer who was arrested and charged after protesting at a drag queen story hour at a public library.

Rachel and Reimer discussed his case, as well as a new bylaw in Calgary which prohibits “specified” protesters from coming within 100-metres of a public building, and which expands the harassment bylaw to include intimidation.

Reimer was arrested in Calgary for a second time just one day after Rachel spoke with him.
