What the fck kind of men do this?

[Neeraj K. Agrawal @NeerajKA]

it says they were reported to the police for tweets that “criticized” and “advocated”

[John Paul Koning @jp_koning]

The Ontario Securities Commission recently reported crypto CEOs @jespow & @brian_armstrong to the RCMP. I don't imagine this bodes well for the ongoing process of registering Kraken/Coinbase under Canada's new regulatory framework for crypto marketplaces: https://t.co/vNjdCnP6PN

WATCH: Mounted police appear to trample protesters in Ottawa.

[Cosmin Dzsurdzsa @cosminDZS]

Who needs the military when you have a fully militarized police force willing to quash dissent against the government?

[Juno News @junonewscom]

The mass arrests of peaceful protesters is currently underway in Ottawa.

[Speaker of the HoC @HoCSpeaker]

The #HoC will not sit today, Friday, February 18. A police operation is expected in the downtown core of Ottawa. Given these exceptional circumstances, and following discussion with all recognized party leadership, the sitting today is cancelled. https://t.co/MnjVU13dUy

Regulating cryptocurrency under Emergencies Act not as clear as Freeland suggests https://t.co/pJMNpwJKgD

The truckers didn’t have a way to win.
But the Canadian state found 3 ways to lose.

First, they couldn’t censor social, so they lost the narrative.

Second, they went after the money because they lost hard power.

Third, they don’t control hard money, so they’ll lose there too.

What the hell is happening to Canada’s banks right now?

[Balaji @balajis]

For years, Quebec threatened to break away from Canada, and got concessions in return. More recently, Alberta has floated similar ideas.

After this freeze order, it'll be interesting to see if they try a Brexit-style referendum. From 2019:

We are witnessing a pivotal moment in the history of the development of the modern algorithmic authoritarian state.

Say the "wrong" thing, donate to the "wrong" cause, and you are added to A List.

Those on the List will be #debanked without trial, unable to buy food or shelter

[Matt Black @matthewjablack]

For years it was difficult to explain to Canadians why #Bitcoin is necessary

It was always a conversation of “yes banks are currently reliable in Canada, but they aren’t in other countries”

Now their own bank account is at risk

The transition is inevitable

[Balaji @balajis]

Canada is ordering banks to freeze accounts without court order.

And by granting broad immunity, they're formally deputizing financial institutions as digital police.

All pretense of "democracy" is gone. There's no consent of the governed. It's just wokes vs workers now.

[Saagar Enjeti @esaagar]

The Washington Post is contacting people whose donation info was leaked and who gave as little as 40 dollars to the truckers to ask them why they did so

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

When a government starts trying to cancel dissent or avoid dissent is when it’s rapidly losing its moral authority to govern -Harper in 2005

[Greg Price @greg_price11]

This is literal madness.

Canada's Deputy Prime Minister says, under the Emergencies Act, banks can immediately freeze or suspend bank accounts without a court order and be protected from civil liability.

Is this still a free country?
