Repercussions of the case on the Internet
The video posted by the teenager received thousands of views and caught the attention of Maxime Bernier, leader of the People’s Party of Canada, who denounced the tendency of the police to bring justice.
If you burn down a church in this country, the police will devote no resources to catching you.
However, if you hand out Bibles on the sidewalk – or organize a rally to defend basic rights in times of hysteria – you will be immediately arrested and fined. We are a sick society. https://t.co/Z0MbLomXkN

Josh has always remained true to his Christian principles
This isn’t the first time Josh has gotten in trouble with the police because of his opinions.
In early March, the teenager was also arrested after speaking out against the transgender restroom policy at his high school, St. Joseph Catholic High School in Renfrew, Ontario.
“I spoke out against the whole gender identity crisis that was being pushed into schools, and it was affecting some of my female peers who were afraid to use their own toilets. It was very controversial and unwelcome by administrators “, did he declare.
When he tried to go back to school after serving his suspensions, there were two trespassing notices. In addition to being accused of harming the physical and mental well-being of students.
“I wouldn’t even call it an education system anymore. It’s an indoctrination system,” Josh concluded.
