Trucker protest anyone?
Trudeau personally threatened to have American's bank accounts seized for donating to those truckers, but Canadians applauding nazis.
How does Trudeau have the power to freeze (let alone seize) American bank accounts? My recollection is that he froze just over 200 Canadian accounts belonging to people who were directly funding the Trucker's criminal enterprise. Most or all of the
accounts were unfrozen about a week later when the tactic ended the Trucker domestic terror operation (as far as I am concerned) without firing a shot. It was brilliant.
1. Trudeau specifically said he could and was going to do it. 2. Not sure if he can, but as a lawyer(supposedly) you should already know that if the USA had the same law here, Canada could could extradite Americans for it. 3. Political favors and if
you knew anything about America, our law enforcement loves to have civil asset forfeitures even if there is no crime. They seize many billions every year here with no crime committed at all. Good luck getting it back....they particular loves seizing
small amounts, too, because it wouldn't be cost effective for anyone to hire a lawyer to get it back. In CA, they were literally seizing brinks trucks that were transferring cash from businesses legal and licensed in CA for no other reason that
Marijuan is still illegal federally....so they seize the entire truck....multiple times. It's worse than that. There was a couple here that legally opened a dispensary, but the feds not only seized that and everything the couple had, but they also
seized the checking account of their daughter who was away at college, had only a small amount in her checking account that she earned from a min wage job AND then they seized a grandmother's bank account that contained social security payments....
neither the grandmother or the daughter had anything to do with the dispensary. So, ya, Bill. Poker players were are gettting a little jumpy about carrying cash.
Now, in general Bill, you are a little safer travelling in CA, but you drive around in some of our flyover states....say, Oklahoma, they really like pulling over single males suspecting them all of being cartel mules. My halfbrother's dad was dying
and my brother was driving through oklahoma. He has literally done nothing wrong in life and drives the speed limit to the point it irritates me, but Oklahoma made sure to pull him over on a bad stop and when they saw the dash cam my brother had faced
towards the driver window, they put him in the police car to question them for their "investigation". Eventually they believed him or confiirmed his dad was in the hospital and let him go with a warning for allegedly "crossing over the line"....total
bullshit. So, ya, Bill, come drive in Oklahoma and FAFO.
