There's no way to know for sure because these are all secret charges (Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said she would not give "specifics of whose accounts are being frozen." -- https://www.newsweek.com/banks-have-begun-freezing-accounts-... ).

But there are some example of people who have come forth: https://www.visiontimes.com/2022/02/21/canadians-frozen-bank...

Not knowing anything about the Vision Times, a quick search:

> Vision Times is one of the news organizations that Falun Gong's founder Li Hongzhi refers to as "our media".[1] The newspaper's president is the spokesperson for the Falun Dafa Association in New York, and is chair of another Falun Gong group called Quit the CCP.[1] In 2021, The Atlantic called Vision Times a "doppelgänger site" of The Epoch Times.[5]

Last I read up on it the consensus seemed to be Mark Strahl's claims had no basis in reality.

None of the donating people mentioned in that article have come forth, if they had done we'd have some evidence it happened.
