> Accounts were not seized.
1. "Banks have started to freeze accounts linked to Ottawa protests, federal government says" CBC - Governments own funded mouth.

3. The bank accounts of the main organizers are still seized. Tamara Lich and Pat King are frozen as well as others.
> Protest rights were not suspended.
Yes they were! The government gave themselves the right to decide where people could protest. They also charged protestors on horses and assaulted others. And blocked off the area near parliament. Going to so far even now, as to tell people they can't fly the FCK Trudeau flag.
Trampling

> The emergencies act invocation was passed by parliament
It needed to pass by the Senate as well, which it never did. Since it was likely to fail. He cancelled it. I personally took out a large amount of money from the bank and I know others as well.
- JumpCrisscross 5y agoSeizure means you don't get your money back. Freezing means you don't get to touch it right now. There are no credible reports of Canadians' bank balances being seized.
- martythemaniak 5y agoIf you can't even understand the difference between "seize" and "freeze", you should consider not having an opinion on this matter.
- dukeofdoom 5y agoIf a government indefinitely "freezes" your bank account, the only practical difference from "seizing" is semantics. Just like you can protest freely, as long as you don't mind getting trampled by a horse or your ribs broken. If you can't win with facts, argue semantics and the definitions of words. I've heard it many times on Sam Harris podcast. So who's trying to misinform?
- martythemaniak 5y agoAll such actions under the emergencies act are subject to court review and due process. There's no such thing as infinitely freezing accounts at the whim of the PM. You can protest freely. You can't break any law you choose to, call it "protest" and expect not to suffer any consequences. Nobody was trampled by a horse. If you're Canadian, spend less time listening to Sam Harris and more time learning about your own country. If you're not, please go back to ignoring us and everything that happens in our country, as you most likely did before.
- dukeofdoom 5y agoTrudeau was going to lose in the Senate so he withdrew the Emergency Act. The legality of him even calling it is getting challenged in court. Dictates and Edicts are for Kings. The Truckers were protesting two years of emergency measures, and the government double downed and passed more emergency measures, and ultimately used violence to quash their protest. If you think this is how democracy should function in Canada, than I think you should take your own advice and learn more about your "Country". > You can protest freely. I have no idea what definition of "freely" is in your head. Does not being allowed to fly a FCK Trudeau flag still constitute "freely" ? https://twitter.com/i/status/1500153323495866372 https://twitter.com/i/status/1500153323495866372 >Nobody was trampled by a horse. This elderly woman was knocked down by a horse and was taken to the hospital due to her injuries. Now again. I'm not sure what constitutes a "trampling" in your definition of "trampling", but I think most people would be okay with calling it a trampling.

- newsbinator 5y agoSo much of what you said was false and "not even wrong" that now, when you're saying some things that are true, people are downvoting you as a crazy crank.
