Politicians in the United States and around the world condemned the Canadian government after it announced it would use anti-terrorism laws to quell a peaceful protest of its own citizens.
“We are broadening the scope of Canada’s anti-money laundering and terrorist financing rules, so that they cover crowdfunding platforms and the payment service providers they use,” said Canadian deputy prime minister Chrystia Freeland at a press conference yesterday.
“These changes cover all forms of transactions including digital assets such as cryptocurrencies.”
“The illegal blockades have highlighted the fact that crowdfunding platforms and some of the payment service providers they use are not fully captured under the Proceeds of Crime and Terrorist Financing Act.”
The Canadian government’s use of terrorism laws against a peaceful movement of its own citizens drew international condemnation.
The President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, said Canada had lost its credibility on matters of democracy and freedom.
“Are these the people who like to give lessons to other countries about democracy and freedom?” asked Bukele. “This is one of the top ranking countries in the ‘democracy index’? Your credibility on these topics is now worth 0.”
Two candidates for the U.S. Senate in Ohio, J.D. Vance and Josh Mandel, also condemned the Canadian government’s actions.
“This is why crypto is taking off,” said Vance. “The regime will cut off your access to banking if you have the wrong politics.”
“If you think Biden is above this level of tyranny think again,” said Mandel. “Yet another reason why freedom-loving Americans should advance the cause of Bitcoin.”
“Trudeau has shown himself to be a psychopath,” said Arizona senate candidate Blake Masters.

Watch and see who supports trudeau. Then NEVER trust that person. Did the decrepit old fool condemn him? pelosi? shumer? the pope-a-dope? the big newspapers?
The radical left loves what trudeau did. They will do it as soon as they can. They hate you, me, this country and the Constitution. They will use the full power of the government to suppress dissent. The soviet union had its gulags. Western Civilization has virtual gulags with the same end result.
Biden told Castreau to do it and the turd listened
You mean that when he was in blackface he had a tater on a string dangling from his...ah, never mind.
True. A lot of people down in Venezuela found crypto to be a life saver. I see the government down there just added a new "tax" on every transaction, 30% I think it is. That will make a lot of new 'criminals', if discovered. I would think local businesses would have a problem with their bookkeeping and inventory reconciliations.
I just checked and Venezuela does tax food sales, probably the most important function of crypto in that country. Something can look a little fishy to the government if no food is being sold, on the books. Also, I can imagine they less stringent interrogation rules than we do.
Governance is always generational. Old '60s and '70s "activists" -- some of them billionaires -- are in power now, aided by their indoctrinated kids and grandkids, especially the ones in the media, who think they're cool.
Actually, without the media working overtime constantly propping them up, these socialist and communist geezers would be reduced to delivering their rants to their fellow residents at the retirement community.
” lot of people down in Venezuela found crypto to be a life saver.”
The US and Canada DO NOT have 3rd world monitoring and tracking capabilities staffed by regime loyal incompetent hacks.
Putin called Trudeau a tyrant. ROFL
Learned it from his daddy’s knee.
Somehow, that picture makes me think of Darrell Hammond as Sean Connery.

wonder what their reaction will be next time the burn/loot/murder crew pops up?
BiteMe would be in his basement in Delaware. Where else?
Canadians are winning big time and they are not backing down.
Trudeau government is dying on the vine and it great to watch, hopefully it will spread around the world.
China condemns the hitler boy 🤪
True dat.
I never said they did.
And that doesn’t mean they won’t. The IRS already wants to know every crypto transaction and tax it accordingly. Anyone who every owned crypto knows that.
This picture reminds me of Biden and Obama, you never saw a “wall” of American flags behind them until they proposed/did something illegal, immoral and controversial and the opposite unifying.
Try new, sugary Chow Chesku cereal, with miniature figures of dictators that stay crunchy even in milk. With all-new Trudeau figures available in both vanilla and chocolate flavors, to go with lemon-flavored Xi Jin Ping, flavorless Biden, and Vodka-flavored Putin, all of them made mandatory for your protection.
