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.'

Remember Biden is taking notes.


Biden is taking a nap.

The puppeteers pulling his strings, however, are taking copious notes.

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.

Ex post facto law, AND a bill of attainder.

You'll never see our American Media say those words - because they're part of the heart of the American Constitution.

Calling the little Canadian tyrant Justine Castreau on his bullMitt will never happen in our Media.

Leftist government is the enemy, folks. This is any government controlled by the democrat taliban party in the US.

“ Just WTF happened to Canada?”

Exactly what is about to happen here.

The fascists are marching. They have all the power, all the resources, all the control. Our society gave it to them. This is the result.

Yeah... that digital gulag that is talked about here. I have been concerned that this will be one of the future purges. It’s the one that will definitely get me.

Getting tired of the “blasted” articles.

So and so blasted for doing x.

So what?!?! Blasted by words does nothing. A wimpy thug like Trudeau isn’t going to care the less about words or being “blasted.” Oh no, he likes that so he can identify who to put in jail.

Where are Canada’s politicians? Why aren’t they blasting.

Instead, the House of Commons upholds the ‘emergency’ and votes confidence in Trudeau. It’s over.

I understand these powers have not even been approved by their Parliament yet.

I suspect it’s not the police that are freezing accounts. I think it is probably companies and banks that are doing it... at the request of the police/govt.

I wonder if these banks even ask for a warrant? Knocked down by a feather, I’m sure.

I bet there are far more firearms left in Canada than one might think.

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

Not likely, they just passed his dictat

Good grief. I was holding out hope they would not.

Jagmeet Singh supported Trudeau.

No doubt because they’re both Indians. It’s true, I saw the picture.

Justine Turdeau opened a can of worms when he gave the jackboots orders to seize bank accounts. Expect a multitude of businesses to incorporate out of the country.

You want that load delivered? Make the payment to our Cayman Islands division and we'll move it for you.

Expect a lot of companies to be First Nation shell companies. Good luck with the Pfascists trying to seize that money.
