People walking downtown – or just waiting for a bus – say the City of Victoria should crack down on street preachers who they say are disturbing their peace.

Some religious groups stand in spaces around downtown, but just hand out literature.

Others are preaching loud enough to be heard over traffic.

How come I knew before I clicked who the author was here? This guy cracks me up.

In response to a series of complaints on the subject, Black Press Media visited the intersection of Fort Street and Douglas Street at different times of the day and on different days. During those visits, several street preachers – ranging in age from their 20s to senior citizens – were loudly preaching the gospel to people who passed by or who were waiting at the two busy bus stops on either side of Douglas.




They complained to Black Press? And Chris Campbell took on the case?

I get a pamphlet from the Jehovah's Witnesses every six months or so, usually man and woman very well dressed from what I can see in the camera
