I agree that the truckers were super disruptive. I’m glad some punitive action was taken.

But freezing the bank accounts of people who donated to them without due process is beyond the pail. Given that cash is mostly dead as a result of covid, banking needs to be considered a basic right. It shouldn’t be able to be revoked simply because the government doesn’t like what you do with your money.

Claim made not in evidence. Legally frozen were the recipient accounts. Yes, contributors could have had their accounts frozen, but no evidence that the government ordered such an action on any donor.
