Bank runs have a way of causing politicians to back down.

The NWO leftists have the longterm plan you briefly describe. The brainwashed masses are the knee jerks who act out of pure emotion.

Come on, what do they know about banking. Only as much as it takes to cause a collective stroke in the Canadian economy.

One thing you can always depend on with leftists is that they never consider the consequences of their actions.

It looked good on paper!!!!

But, not to be undaunted, they just move on to their next stupidity.

True story. Years ago, the Japanese government just floated the idea of implementing the system we already have in the United States to tie bank accounts to social security numbers.

Just floated, grant you.

The run on the banks was so intense that it was dropped like a hot potato and the people who floated the idea ran for cover like cockroaches.

To this day Japan's social security numbers are permitted to be used only for social security. Sort of like the system the USA had in the 1960s before the LBJ-Nixon administration started chipping away at our rights.

“Now that protestors bank accounts will be unfrozen, it will be much easier for them to withdraw their money and invest elsewhere.”

how difficult would it be for Canadians to open U.S. bank accounts and shift most of their reserves into those accounts for protection from Canadian despots?

for example, RBC bank claims to be a U.S. bank specifically designed for Canadians to conduct cross-border transactions ... if RBC is REALLY a U.S. bank, then they wouldn’t be subject to the whims of Canadian despots ...

How so? I mean in real terms - was there a run on bank deposits or the like? I hadn’t heard about any blowback of consequence.

Did you watch the video?

“Kanadian banking is now branded as untrustworthy and will be reduced to transaction processors. “

exactly ...

how difficult would it be for Canadians to open U.S. bank accounts and shift most of their reserves into those accounts for protection from Canadian despots?

for example, RBC bank claims to be a U.S. bank specifically designed for Canadians to conduct cross-border transactions ... if RBC bank is REALLY a U.S. bank, then they shouldn’t be subject to the whims of Canadian despots ...

There are costly court challenges that would have been losses for banks.

If you still live in Canada, answer the question below!:

Why would anyone keep their money in a Canadian Bank?

Yes, there was a run on banks in CA.

Also, kinda hard to seize assets from folks when they are still paying off loans to the banks, then freeze the bank accounts.

My guess: I few calls from bank ceo’s explaining reality to them.

Any idea what percentage of deposits a Canadian bank is required to have on hand?

I assume they’ll blame “freezing accounts” on Putin and Trump supporters.....

It gave powers to bank, which they never asked for or wished for ...

... but which they blindly and callously used, being devotees of the prissy tyrant and all.

Between her and Yellen, by all means, promote more women past their ability to do the job.

Absolutely.

Likely due to a huge silent run on the banks. 😆

you really think a state-sponsored media would dare report a bank run?
