A pastor in Canada has stirred controversy after he abandoned a couple he was supposed to bless on their wedding day.

In a viral video on TikTok, the pastor is seen storming out of the church, refusing to officiate the wedding.

"He doesn’t have papers; I’m not going to sit here and push my daughter. This is a marriage of convenience, not a marriage of love," he said in the video, which has since garnered thousands of views.

The groom, who is said to be a foreign national, did not have the necessary documents to prove his legal residency in Canada.

According to Canadian immigration laws, a foreign partner can only apply for residency if they have been living with their partner for at least 12 months.

It is unclear whether the couple had been living together for the required period. The incident has sparked a debate on the legitimacy of marriages of convenience.
