Canada has moved to make the asset freezing part of its Emergencies Act, which was used to target supporters of the Freedom Convoy protests, a permanent fixture.
Wow, who saw that one coming?
In order to stop what the Trudeau regime referred to as “illegal blockades,” the government threatened to freeze the bank accounts of demonstrators and anyone who donated money to them.
Under the Emergencies Act, bank are required to freeze accounts without a court order, while all crowdfunding platforms and payment providers are mandated to provide information to FINTRAC (Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada).
Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland announced that many of the measures imposed ‘temporarily’ to deal with the protesters (after they had been suitably demonized as violent extremists) will now become permanent.

“We used all the tools that we had prior to the invocation of the Emergencies Act and we determined we needed some additional tools,” Freeland announced
“Some of those tools we will be putting forward measures to put those tools permanently in place. The authorities of FINTRAC, I believe, do need to be expanded to cover crowdsourcing platforms and payment platforms,” she added.
Ronald Reagan has been proven right again.
“Nothing lasts longer than a temporary government program.”
Meanwhile, as we previously highlighted, such measures are likely to exclude protected classes (basically anyone who isn’t a native Canadian or white), with groups such as immigrants and refugees enjoying an exemption.

Yikes. I would recommend never to put money in a Canadian Bank and to stay out of Canada.
They have nearly gone full Nazi.
prolly getting rid of cash next year... then it’s done
Anyone who still wonders why white supremacy has been falsely claimed and artificially raised to the number one terror threat in the country need wonder no longer.
And people wonder how it was possible for the vast majority of Germans to cheer on Hitler enthusiastically.
There are only a few "good Canadians" left at this point. We are up against a population in our own nation that is 50% enthusiastically pro-communazi.
Certainly trying to drive the economy under ground. These people aren’t going to all go kill themselves. They are going to continue to live, and economically, too. What a sick and twisted world these people want.
This is totalitarianism and active dictatorship.
No hyperbole.
This is no uprising of the oppressed.
This is a coup of the Median-Government against the people.
Probably a good time to pull any investments or capital tied up in Canada no matter what it’s in 🤪
RE: Probably a good time to pull any investments or capital tied up in Canada no matter what it’s in
I own stocks in TD Bank ( Toronto Dominion ) for its dividends and have deposits there as well. Should I sell and move the account?
WHOA!
What a power grab! I’m sorry - what a ‘tool’ grab.
She is the EXACT reason why the US founding fathers put in place checks and balances. This is totally out of control. I hope the Canadian judiciary slams this bitch in the face with a 2x4 and knocks all of her teeth out. Truedolt shouldn’t be trusted with anything over a toilet cleaning job after this.
Way over the top.
Like a wedding lasts longer than the marriage.
That was the original intention. trudeau was put into office to turn Canada communist, and he has succeeded.
Next: taking money from accounts for being a Trump supporter.
Yep, what sane person or business wants anything to do with a government / financial system that can freeze your assets solely on the whim of a single politicians desires or personal affronts.
Plank #1 of the Communist Manifesto: Abolition of private property.
You will own nothing, and you will like it.
Soon we’ll have people flooding into the USA from north and south.

Anybody who has too much money to put under a mattress; there's no other choice.
(The banks and the governments are basically one and the same; it's not like a bank can put out a commercial promising new customers that their personal information will be shielded if the government comes knocking for it.)
Who is implementing all of these crackdowns on freedom. Is it that Communist Trudeau acting alone, or does he have the majority in their parliament supporting this too? Very dangerous times. This is why we have the Constitution that we do!!!
