We listen to an audio clip of the arrest of a young skater in Calgary for violating the lockdown measures, and discuss John's column about that incident. We also talk about the recent Alberta court action where the Justice Centre tried to get an injunction to limit the lockdown damage over Christmas and lost. The main court action is still to come.
