TD Bank Seizes Freedom Convoy Assets, Turns Them Over to Canadian Government
The Wildfire Newsletter ^ | 11 Feb 2022 | Kyle Becker

The Canadian government is successfully colluding with big banks to seize assets intended for the peaceful protesters of the Freedom Convoy movement.

On Friday, TD Bank told CTV News that it would "apply to surrender to an Ontario court the money that had not been refunded by GoFundMe, totalling about $1 million, as well as some $400,000 the group had accepted through direct donations."

“TD has asked the court to accept the funds, which were raised through crowdfunding and deposited into personal accounts at TD, so they may be managed and distributed in accordance with the intentions of the donors, and/or to be returned to the donors who have requested refunds but whose entitlement to a refund cannot be determined by TD,” spokesperson Carla Hindman said.

Keith Wilson, the lead attorney for the Freedom Convoy movement, said that the group "planned to fight to retrieve any money they had raised," CTV reported. The Freedom Convoy groups is now turning to a cryptocurrency fundraiser that has raised nearly $1 million.

“We will be taking expedited legal steps to have the restrictions on the donated funds lifted as soon as possible,” Wilson said in an email to CTV News.

The Freedom Convoy organizers are now turning to a cryptocurrency fundraiser based on Satoshis.

I will wait for confirmation from multiple sources. If true, all of my money is coming out of TD Bank ASAP.

“Any relationship to TD Ameritrade?”

Fortunately NO, otherwise some of my money would be on the move.

Are you sure? I think they are the same parent company—just like TD Bank NA (The US subsidiary.)

This is a case study for crypto.

It’s not anonymous…but it is international, transparent, and outside the banking world.

TD Bank is very likely Toronto Dominion Bank. I believe Ameritrade bought an asset from TD Bank some years ago, hence the TD in their name.

Toronto-Dominion Bank

TD Ameritrade:

“The company was founded as Ameritrade in 1971. In 2006, it acquired the U.S. operations of TD Waterhouse from Toronto-Dominion Bank and was renamed TD Ameritrade. It was acquired by Charles Schwab Corporation in 2020.”

I have one piddly little account at TD and never did much with it.

Guess that account can be phased out.

Typical.

Initiated by TD? They think they can wash their hands of the situation.

People need to realize. The left has NEVER been about the “workers” and the “little man”.

I know first hand being at dinner parties with card-carrying Communists.

They look DOWN on them. Even people from these backgrounds.

All they want to do is rise up in the ranks in politics.

Pharma Fascism is now the default for goose-stepping government gorillas.

Everyone who stands up to the mandates of Pharma Fascism is attacked and robbed.

The workers revolution is here and the Left is out to crush it with an iron fist.

"Thank you both! THAT is how it is done!"

........ When there is a purpose and a principle at stake ..... I guess it's kind of a quirk I have .... But I actually get a big kick out of standing on principles ..... I am not kidding .... I love to see the look on their face!!! You know they will at the very least inquire about the matter to others and research the matter .... Plus .... When I am up in the Great White North ... I love letting them know I am leaving and heading back to the warm Southwest.

That is real easy. Give it to the Truckers.

Actually "Brandon Trudeau" is making an error. This action only affirms they have an oppressive government whom soul mission is control and socialism as is ours today in the USA. It will cause more dissent not less.
