The National Capital Commission (NCC) will not issue a permit for a concert by a Donald Trump-affiliated U.S. singer in a Gatineau, Que., park on Saturday.
Christian rocker Sean Feucht said he was going to play a free concert at Jacques-Cartier Park, which is managed by the Crown corporation, on Saturday afternoon.
"The NCC will not be issuing an event permit that had been requested for Jacques-Cartier Park North following consultation with the Gatineau Police Service and due to concerns about public safety and security for and around the event," an NCC spokesperson told CBC in an email on Wednesday evening.
Feucht, who unsuccessfully ran for U.S. Congress as a Republican in 2020, is also a missionary and an author who has spoken out against the 2SLGBTQ+ community, abortion rights and critical race theory.
Feucht has called for government policy in the United States to be based on traditional Christian values in the midst of a "spiritual war" in that country.
His website calls on young people to stand up against the "progressive agenda being forced upon America."
Feucht's show in Nova Scotia on Wednesday was moved from a historic site near Halifax to a rural area north of the city after Parks Canada revoked the permit. It's the first in a planned multi-date national tour.
