The Ontario government says it has successfully petitioned a court to freeze access to millions of dollars donated through online fundraising platform GiveSendGo to the convoy protesting COVID-19 restrictions in Ottawa and at several border crossings.

The province obtained an order from the Superior Court of Justice that prohibits anyone from distributing donations made through the website’s “Freedom Convoy 2022” and “Adopt-a-Trucker” campaign pages, said a spokeswoman for Premier Doug Ford.

They always have been, why would they change now?

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

I suspect that some of the folks haven't really thought things through.

The only reason it hasn’t happened is because these people are decent folk who are willing to try everything before that step.

Send the Marines to the Canadian border (but not the Southern border):

One major flaw I'm seeing is that the average Joe and Jane are the ones who are going to suffer the most under the continued supply chain collapse.  I think I'm going to pad my supplies a little more.

I support truckers protesting.  I think they are right to do so.

  I don't support anyone blocking roads.  Remember when the BLM protesters in the USA were blocking interstates?

I actually agree with this. I was ranting about BLM and antifa blocking roads and basically kidnapping people. It would be hypocritical to be in favor of these guys blocking the free movement of innocent people. I support their cause, but not the road blocking.

I do remember it.  I remember not being a fan of it, and being concerned what would happen if I were caught in one.

I also remember it being pretty effective at gaining concessions from the city governments.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIu2uUHQZi8

Pretty much where I stand.
But also note how both the government and MSM are treating it in comparison to when BLM and ANTIFA blocked roads and even ran out in front of traffic and surrounded cars and even pulled drivers out.

Absolutely. There is an enormous heap of hypocrisy coming for politicians and the MSM. Big tech too, with the kiboshing of online fundraisers.

Blocking the street, pulling people out of their cars, then beating them often putting them in the hospital or worst = peaceful protest.
Doing anything to get away and/or defend yourself from the above = violence
Blocking the street and doing not much more than sitting in your truck = violence

You forgot about the one or more times where someone shot into a vehicle.  I think one SUV driver ran over someone after he was wounded by someone shooting into his vehicle.  Can't remember where that happened. 

There was a video later of a woman holding a pistol out while standing in front of a truck.  I was a bit surprised the truck didn't floor it when she pulled out the pistol.

Givesendgo looks to be telling the Canadian gov to *expletive deleted*ck off. I was kinda wondering how the Canadians could seize legal funds held in the US.

When violence furthers the goals of the regime, it's "free speech". When free speech threatens the goals of the regime, it's called "violence".
Maybe a rare occurence, but then you only have to get murdered once to ruin your whole day.
