Canadian authorities say 206 bank accounts were frozen under the power granted by the Emergencies Act thus far.
One of those bank accounts belongs to a single mom with a minimum wage job who donated $50 to the Freedom Convoy when it was legal.
Canadian trucker Derek Brouwer said his truck was seized & personal/business bank accounts have been frozen since Friday because of his involvement in the protests.
“They’ve taken my truck—I don't know where it is”
They also locked his account for a non-truck business he owns.
Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair told @CTVNews that the act it “isn't targeted at small donations.”
When pressed about the threshold that would trigger Canadian authorities to freeze an account to investigate, Blair replied, “No one is interested in that.”
Sure… 🙄

OTTAWA: Mayor Jim Watson has suggested trucks and other vehicles seized by police during an operation to clear out the Freedom Convoy protest be used to pay for policing costs.
He believes the Emergencies Act would allow for such action.
It’s not enough that they freeze bank accounts, trample peaceful protesters, and potentially euthanize trucker’s pets.
“I’ve asked our city manager, for instance, how can we take possession of all of those trucks that have been towed away?” —Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson
“I don't think the taxpayers of Ottawa should be paying for this multi-million dollar bill that we’re going to be saddled with because of the irresponsibility and the illegal activities of a bunch of truckers and others who showed little regard for our community and its people.”

Christine Anderson, EU Parliament member to Australia: “I will do whatever I can to make it known to the world that your once free and liberal democracy has been transformed into a totalitarian regime which tramples on human’s rights, civil liberties, and the rule of law.”
“I am imploring all of you around the world who still think your governments are looking out for your best interest. At no point in history have the people forcing others into compliance been the good guys. The welfare of humanity has always been the alibi of tyrants.”
“You need to understand it isn’t about breaking the 4th [C0VID] wave. It’s all about breaking people. We need to stop our governments from transforming our free and democratic societies into totalitarian regimes. We need to do it now. We need to stand up now!” —Christine Anderson
“Along with coins this Christmas, Salvation Army wants white donors to offer a “sincere apology” for their racism” as they embrace the BLM movement and ideologies identical to CRT, and “dismantle white privilege” — Central Nova News
Salvation Army’s leadership created an “International Social Justice Commission” which developed & released a resource called “Let’s Talk About Racism” to educate white donors.
Page 4/67: “Lament, repent and apologize for biases or racist ideologies held and actions committed.”
A “Study Guide on Racism” explains whites are racist even without realizing it.
“Subtle nature of racism is such that people who are not consciously racist…function with the privileges, empowerment & benefits of the dominant ethnicity…unintentionally perpetuating injustice.”
Racine Co, WI: Sheriff unveiled proof the WEC encouraged statewide election law violations, saying, “This is an entire state of Wisconsin issue…people who are supposed to know the law, and people who discussed openly how they’re going to violate the law.”
The Sheriff’s Office spoke from the Ridgewood Care Facility, where the “elderly were prayed upon”; 42 families were contacted. This is the “first time we’ve gone public with our complaints” and “no one has been taken into custody”. They emphasized it’s a complex case—state-level.
“Crimes occurred throughout the state” of Wisconsin, according to the Sheriff’s Office of Racine County. “We would be foolish to think…that this integrity issue occurred at just one facility throughout the entire state.” They expect many more cases from other counties to arise.
