CALGARY – Police in Calgary have ticketed three organizers of an anti-mask rally held over the weekend.

The province has banned outdoor gatherings of more than 10 people in order to slow the spread of the COVID-19.

Media have reported that hundreds attended the rally in the city’s downtown.

Artur Pawlowski has been charged under the Public Health Act with contravening a public health order, failing to wear a face covering where required and failing to have a permit for an event.

David Pawlowski and Ryan Audette are also charged with contravening a public health order and failing to wear a face covering.
