Canada’s Justice Minister: Trump Supporters ‘Oughta Be Worried’ About Frozen Bank Accounts
Breitbart ^ | 16 Feb 2022 | PAUL BOIS

Posted on 02/16/2022 7:19:52 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Canada’s Justice Minister, David Lametti, has told Trump supporters who donated to the “Freedom Convoy” to “be worried” about having their bank accounts frozen.

Speaking with CTV News, when Lametti was asked if regular citizens who donated to the “Freedom Convoy” protests in opposition to the vaccine mandates should be worried about having their assets frozen by the government, Lametti singled out pro-Trumpers. The reporter asked:

You just compared people who may have donated to this to the same people who maybe are funding a terrorist. I just want to be clear here, sir. A lot of folks say, ‘Look, I just don’t like your vaccine mandates and I donated to this, now it’s illegal, should I be worried that the bank can freeze my account?’ What’s your answer to that?

“Well, I think if you are a member of a pro-Trump movement who’s donating hundreds of thousands of dollars and millions of dollars to this kind of thing, they oughta be worried,” responded Lametti.

Lametti also said that truckers could lose their trucking license if they participated in the protests or if their company permitted them to participate in the protest.

Well.... I guess eventually. I would point out that a lot of people probably thought this same thing in 1916 Russia. And 1930s Germany.

It’s already illegal by US law for a foreigner to donate to the Trump campaign, so I don’t know where this angle goes.

If Canada’s law is meant to result in seizing/freezing bank accounts in the US, that would take agreement from the US government. IOW, it is not illegal by US law to support the truckers with donations.

That's literally true as a matter of law. When you surrender money to a bank, it becomes the bank's property. You retain a claim, but not ownership.

They have lost control of the situation.

The name of the game now is “overwhelm the system.”

They are too arrogant and dumb to realize the system will be overwhelmed for them, too.

“...were exposed by hackers...”

The hackers were employed on a contract basis by the US and Canadian government.

The Canadians leftists are pulling out all the stops- thus far they’ve blamed President Trump, the russians and the nazi’s. And like good little leftist lemmings they’ve not taken an iota of responsibility on this.

Sheesh. What happens in the other countries happens here about three months later. Got to nip tyranny in the bud wherever it’s happening. (It used to be that three-month “rule”; it has become much shorter over the last couple of years.)

I’m glad France didn’t have that mindset in the 1700s.

No, its not a MARXIST takeover, it is an EXTREMELY WEALTHY OLIGARCH take over, an attempt to reintroduce feudalism. The Dhimmicrats in the US, the Lieberals and the NDP in PRC (Politically Repressive Canada) are all in on it.

This is no longer a ‘left vs right’ battle. It is the ULTRA rich that think they are gods, against EVERYONE else. People like Gates, Soros and Schwab are most certainly NOT communist. They DO however, want a return to feudalism, where THEY are the lords over the common people.

Some of them use communism to push division and draw in the weak minded into the ‘equality’ of socislism/communism, but it is all bravo sierra. Gates is on record as stating that through the use of vaccinations, birth control and education, the global population could be reduced by 15% to a ‘more manageable’ level. HE IS A MAJOR INVESTOR IN CCP-Coronavirus vaccines He is also the LARGEST OWNER OF FARMLAND IN THE US.

Remember, it was the World Economic Forum that had on its website a video explaining how, ‘In 2030, you will own nothing and be happy.’ Why will ‘you’ own nothing? Because the OLIGARCHS will own EVERYTHING! Everything will be a ‘service’ (which you will pay a fee to use). As ‘YOU’ will not own a house, ‘YOU’ only need a SMALLER salary. ‘YOU’ will also NOT be able to save ANYTHING, as the OLIGARCHS will ensure you are paid only enough to survive. If you get sick, unless you are key to THEIR needs, you die, too bad.

It is FASCISM, a return to feudalism.

Maybe that is the plan.

Bank runs would trigger the next phase of the Great Reset.

Go ahead take your filthy deplorable dollars out, if they are not in the bank at reset time you lose everything. You took your money out, but now want to deposit it? No thank you deplorable, take the filth somewhere else. You social credit isn’t worth the risk of doing business with you.

See how that works? Laugh...just wait and see.

Hunh. If you can make that size of donation, you can also afford the best lawyers. I wouldn’t worry.

Exactly. The Toffs and the Plebs. And sadly most young people have been taught that under Maxism, they will all be “equal” when really they will be the proletariat.
