Overview
- Family Services Minister Searle Turton confirmed he escorted Sean Feucht and others through the Alberta legislature late Friday following a concert on the grounds.
- Turton said there is no policy barring such visits but acknowledged the tour fell outside usual practice and said he has contacted the Speaker’s Office to ensure proper procedure going forward.
- Feucht posted a short video showing a worship session in the legislature rotunda that night.
- NDP deputy leader Rakhi Pancholi condemned the visit as a misuse of public space, while Premier Danielle Smith’s chief of staff Rob Anderson criticized Edmonton councillor Andrew Knack for objecting to the event.
- Feucht’s Edmonton stop drew protesters and followed a series of cancellations elsewhere in Canada, with only Edmonton and Saskatoon proceeding and Feucht claiming nearly 5,000 attendees.
