Outrage as Canadian single mom on minimum wage has bank account frozen for donating $50 to Freedom Convoy: Trudeau is blasted for draconian law that 'would never have been imposed on BLM'
U.K. Daily Mail ^ | 2/21/2022 | Andrea Cavallier

A Canadian MP says the bank account of a single mom with a minimum wage job has been frozen after she donated $50 to Freedom Convoy.

Conservative lawmaker Mark Strahl says the mom, named only as Briane, has had her life ruined for donating the small sum to the anti-vaccine mandates protest.

Strahl shared Brianne's story as concerns grow that scores of ordinary people will no longer be able to pay for food and basics after their accounts were frozen for donating to a group of protesters.

'Briane is a single mom from Chilliwack working a minimum wage job. She gave $50 to the convoy when it was 100% legal. She hasn't participated in any other way. Her bank account has now been frozen. This is who Justin Trudeau is actually targeting with his Emergencies Act orders.'

Response on social media varied from those angry at the situation, stating this would have never happened to Black Lives Matter protesters, and offered to help Briane, to those who questioned whether Briane really exists. DailyMail.com has contacted Strahl for further information.

'Thank you to those who have read this and offered to help someone you've never met,' Strahl tweeted. 'Shame on those who have read it and attacked someone you've never met. I will keep working with Briane to resolve this matter with her bank and will provide updates as they are made available.'

'To those of you, especially the media, demanding more details on Briane, having seen what has been said about her online today and what has been done to other convoy donors in the last weeks I am not going to help you dox her,' Strahl continued. 'I know who she is and I won't stop fighting for her.'

Meanwhile, Canadian trucker Derek Brouwer told Fox News that his truck has been seized, and that his personal and business bank accounts have been frozen since Friday, because of his involvement with the protests.

'They've taken my truck - I don't know where it is - and on Friday, they locked up my personal and my trucking business accounts,' he said.

He added that they also locked the account for another business he owns that he said has nothing to do with trucks or the protests.

Brouwer said he hasn't heard anything from police or the government on what steps to take next.

Without trial or any legitimate cause in law they strip him of his rights and means to survive...for parking.

What Trudeau is doing is criminal. I believe they will call him out on it...in Parliament.

This is just a dry run to see what they can get away with when it comes to seizing the guns of Americans. So, gun owners, if you think you can just ‘ride it out’ under Democrat domination...just watch Canada.

People with nothing to lose are very dangerous. And True-dough is creating a lot of them.

Trudeau is doing a fine job of waking normal people up to the fact that we are in the middle of a global communist coup.

How soon will that be (for Parliament to respond)? It seems Trudeau has even less compassion for his people than our own president.
I would never have predicted it.
Macron, I could see doing something like this.
Erdogan, the Turkish president. I could see that.

Agree. I said this a few days ago. People are feeling cornered and will fight. Unholy vengeance will fall upon the evil PMs, RCMP, etc.

This is an ex post facto law (among other things). When people contributed, it was perfectly legal to do so. Now they’re being punished.

Yep, main thing keeping most of us in check is the risk of losing family and property. If they destroy all that anyway....might as well go out on your shield.

This is horrible and heartbreaking. They had no clue this protest would end up this way. How could they know?

Remember Biden is taking notes.
