I suspect he got a call from WEF to back it off because it was exposing the potential abuse of power of the world Digital ID that they’re pushing.

I suspect the same. Only this one has an even more fundamental factor - I don't recall whether it was the Ottowa mayor or Chrystia Freeland who said it, but one of them claimed that they were going after the listed donors and freezing their accounts as well. The upshot was that quite a lot of people decided to find out whether their own accounts had been frozen, hit the online banking all at once, and thoroughly clogged the servers. That wasn't a hack and it wasn't a DDOS, it was simply a panic brought on by stupid statements from vindictive people that weren't even true (but that might be in the future). The banks, for their part, had to remind Trudeau and his people that if you freeze people's accounts they can't make payments on mortgage loans, business loans, and truck and auto loans, and the lenders, i.e. the banks, take the hit. So yeah, a little call to the WEF and Trudeau ended up looking like a dog who found the end of the leash at a dead run. Ouch.

Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will repay him for his deed.

Idiot liberals think they know how non-liberals think and will act. They project without fail.

And they are always wrong.

The only liberal who I ever knew who got us was Michael Moore and he tried to warn them about Trump, but Noooooo, they knew better.

Liberals love to lie to and control other people and just don’t get that people don’t like being either lied to or controlled. It depends some on who’s doing the controlling and oppose abortion and you’ll find out soon enough how they really feel about being controlled themselves. Why they think we’re OK with it is beyond me.

Every account that got a gubmnt “stimulus” check without doing anything at all is under control of the state. But we are already complacent with that...

Not scared, wise citizens have discerned the danger of having any faith in the banking system.

They are taking the same risk if they transfer their money to U.S. banking accounts.

Yes, yes he did.

And, currently, Mrs. Bears and I are divesting ourselves of all Canadian-based stocks/bonds we hold.
