So instead of GoFundMe stealing the money, the Canadian government will freeze it instead?

Along with never giving the government the ability to control your vehicle, we now have a lesson for why you should never give the government the power to control your assets (via a central bank digital currency).

If there was a CBDC, paper money would not exist, and the government could simply "turn off" the ability of the truckers and their associates to access any of their funds.

I watched portions of the live broadcast and she was more aggressive in attacking JT and supporting the movement. I feel like that video was pulled out of context. Notice how it starts at an odd point with no backstory.

That's good to hear. Still, even this portion gives castdeau leverage

This "pandemic" truly exposes the illusion of freedom that we in the West have been living under. Doesn't take much for all the tyrant wanna be's out there to strip you of your freedom.

I would love to hear from our board law experts on what the legal basis is for this. Can they just start an American non-profit, shift the donations there and have that non-profit withdraw the cash in the U.S. and buy supplies or otherwise use the cash as needed?

Canadian law is screwy, I guess. It would have been very hard to do this in the states.

Can we sue the Canadian government? Wouldn't that be interesting.

Have to sue in Canada, I'd think. TBH, I have no idea. Let's see what the state AGs do, if anything, in response.

If the truckers are smart (which I bet they are)

They should remove all of their cage bolts for the air brakes and hide them in the cabs.

Tow guys might have a few spares but not that many.

How can Canada make GSG do anything? GSG is an American company.

Genuinely curious.

Could possibly prevent them from sending it to Canadian accounts? Bank would be in violation of the court order and IIRC there are only 5 or 6 major banks in Canada. TD, RBS, Scotia, Montreal, and maybe 1-2 more. I guarantee none of those will want anything to do with it and will heavily scrutinize where any GSG money goes. And I think we can be certain that they have sting rays and a lot of grey or secret intelligence that they're gathering on the protestors and their leadership structure, contact and influence maps and the like. I would bet the government would be happy to tell the bank to freeze money going into those leaders accounts.

It's called minimum contacts for jurisdictional purposes. If GSG effects a wire transfer into Canada, there is arguable contact for jurisdiction in a Canadian court. For practical purposes, the province of Ontario would sue in federal court in the states to get an injunction here to enforce the Canadian court order.

I think. International law is not my thing.

But I will say this one somewhat funny story I learned in law school about jurisdiction. Famous French skier, Jean Claude Killy in the late 60s. Another European court gained jurisdiction over him for a paternity suit (IIRC) because he had left his underwear there.

Odd that all of a sudden Dems are concerned with border security and ruining the economy.

Need to tread carefully. There may be reciprocity agreements between the US and Canada over this sort of thing.

Our government overlords are trying to figure out how to run away from COVID and end restrictions. They don't want any part of this IMO. If the DOJ blocks this then they bring Canada protests to the US tomorrow.
