> On February 17, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said in a press conference that financial institutions have started freezing accounts and canceling credit cards in accordance with the Emergencies Act, which Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked earlier this week.

> The powers granted by the act would allow banks to target the accounts of people who have donated to crowdfunding platforms, like the fundraising campaigns on GoFundMe and GiveSendGo, that have fueled the ongoing protests, but Freeland said she would not give "specifics of whose accounts are being frozen."

They can lock anything for any amount and not give any details. Supposedly they have unlocked some, but there's no way of knowing who and why not for others. Typical petrostate behavior.

>“Just to be clear, a financial contribution either through a crowdsourced platform or directly, could result in their bank account being frozen?” Lawrence asked.

>“Yes,” Jacques answered.

Still waiting to see the evidence that it happened.

RCMP denied being involved and were rushing to unfreeze those accounts.
