The people who donated to the Canadian truckers' protest had their accounts frozen by the Trudeau regime because of KYC.

The problem is that there are no checks and balances preventing banks from freezing assets because they want to or the government told them to.

Banking needs to be a right, and unless someone is convicted of a crime involving the bank account's assets, banks and governments should not be able to freeze them. There can be exceptions for fraud like FTX where there will be a significant financial harm to other individuals if the assets aren't frozen, but what we have today is unchecked government financial terrorism against individuals they do not like, and now they want to extend that terrorism to speech.
