So it looks like Canada under Trudeau is going all Total Surveillance / Total Control State so fast the banks are having issues.
The Emergencies Act, formerly the War Powers Act has only been invoked twice in Canadian history: Once under Pierre E. Trudeau in the FLQ crisis in 1970 when Quebec Marxist Separatists committed about 200 bombings, kidnapped British trade commissioner James Cross and kidnapped and murdered of Quebec cabinet minister Pierre Laporte.
Now twenty-two years it is being invoked by his son against peaceful protestors who blow truck horns, blockade traffic, have dances and parties with bouncy-houses and then clean up the area where they've been leaving it cleaner than how they found it.
In short, Trudeau fils is miffed that he wasn't the one shutting down business and movement of Canadians this time.
Using the EA against peaceful protestors is kinda like using a nuclear bomb to swat a fly, and not what it was designed for, but this is what happens when you elect a substitute teacher based on his having some looks that women find attractive and his father's last name.
It's gonna be one heckuva precedent for the next time left-wing demonstrators want to march or protest against a conservative government in Canada, just saying.
It also appears Justin and friends are messing with the Canadian banking system, trying to seize money or freeze the funds of the trucker protestors.
There's absolutely no way that's going to go sideways.
No chance of it harming the Canadian banking system, as people realize what was once a solid, safe, sable and well maintained financial system can have their funds seized or frozen upon government whim, which was just demonstrated when the Big 5 major Canadian banks went offline last night and this morning.
No chance of this leading to actual bloodshed as Ottawa police threaten to take truckers' kids and kill their dogs.
So, anyone still in the mood for an all-digital currency? or giving governments this kind of power?
