BREAKING: Trudeau's CBC state broadcaster is combing through the illegally hacked database of GiveSendGo donors, and emailing donors asking them to explain themselves.
Trudeau’s state broadcaster is doxxing Trudeau’s political opponents. They’re teeing them up for financial punishments. This is not journalism, anymore than Der Sturmer or Pravda was journalism.

1. Under Harper, Canadian banks were considered the strongest in the world. No banks collapsed during the 2008 financial crisis.

Under Trudeau, banks have becoming political playthings, being weaponized against a vague list of enemies. This is an unprecedented political risk.
2. But the world of finance is interconnected. Many Canadian banks operate in the U.S., have customers there, and are also regulated there. Does Trudeau think he can order @RBC to seize a customer's bank account in Florida? That's what the Emergencies Act order suggests.
3. But it's not just Canadian banks with customers in the U.S. It's U.S. banks operating in Canada. Look at Trudeau's emergency economic measures order: gazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p2/2022/…

It covers foreign banks and insurance companies operating in Canada. So, mainly American banks.

1. Trudeau has no legal justification for invoking the Emergencies Act.

It has never been invoked before -- not even on 9/11, or the 2014 terrorist attack on Parliament.

Trudeau called the truckers "terrorists" but everyone can see that's a lie.

...2

2. Tonight Trudeau called the truckers, and the countless citizens cheering them on, "dangerous" and "not peaceful". But in fact there has not been a single act of violence committed by any of them in two weeks.
3. The Emergencies Act is to made to defend against a genuine threat to the security of the nation. The definition of "threat" in outlined in the CSIS Act. It has an extraordinarily high bar: laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/PDF/C-23.pdf

1. The Legion head office has been colonized by woke, anti-veteran extremists. They’re hated by the grassroots members (including me). Discount anything from this official twitter account — it’s obviously just Trudeau talking points.
2. The Legion hired a leftist named Nujma Bond who has brought Critical Race Theory into the heart of the Legion. I remember when she freaked out that I had a book launch there. She said I was banned -- the local veterans laughed at her and welcomed me. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
3. This is the perfect example. Actual veterans are taking down the atrocious fences around the war memorial and cleaning the place up. Police agree with it. But it embarrasses Trudeau, so Nujma Bond falsely speaks in the Legion's name, attacking the veterans. So gross.

1. Let me show you the law used to freeze the truckers' money. (I don't think they're actually seizing it; I think it's safely in a U.S. bank.)

Here's the government's press release. If I can find the full order I'll post it. They're using s. 490.8 of the Criminal Code.
2. Here's the link to s. 490.8 of the Criminal Code: laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/c-46/… It's a "a restraint order... in respect of any offence-related property". The kind of thing you'd use to seize a drug-dealer's speedboat, or cash.
3. The court hearing is done in secret -- for the element of surprise. In legalese, "ex parte" -- without the other party there. So it was a sneak attack. The application "may be made ex parte and shall be made in writing to a judge and be accompanied by an affidavit."

1. My American friends don't believe me when I tell them that not only does Canada have a state broadcaster, but it also has government comedians who do government comedy on that government broadcaster.

I know you think I'm making that up, but this is one of their accounts. 👇
2. It's a contradiction to be a government comedian unless your job is explicitly to mock the government itself, like Will Sommers. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_Somm… He was a jester, a kind of official opposition given legal immunity for challenging the king where others would be punished.
3. We think of jesters as clowns or jugglers who just make jokes. But "many a true word is spoken in jest". Showtime's "The Tudors" has a wonderful depiction of a jester, as a bitter and biting critic of the king, genuinely relied on as an defence against lying flatterers.
