"A new Angus Reid poll showed that 54% of Canadians support an immediate halt to all pandemic restrictions, a stark contrast to the 56% who said as recently as in December they would have supported another round of lockdowns over Omicron."

You didn't actually link to an article on Angus Reid. Here's one:

> As the country rolls into another week of uncertainty, nearly three-quarters of Canadians (72%) say the time has come for protesters to “go home, they have made their point.”

Only 22% of US voters have favorable opinion of antifa. Should accounts associated with them be frozen as well?

The context of my comment was the claim that there was "loss of mandate", not whether freezing bank accounts of any group is legal or advisable.

That's a editorialized quote. The source survey didn't say anything about "immediately" or "all" restrictions.

The specific question was "It’s time to end restrictions and let people self isolate if they’re at risk.", which describes basically the process that basically all provinces were going through prior to the protests.
