Chris Barber, a main organizer of the “Freedom Convoy” is suing the federal government for using the Emergencies Act to freeze his bank accounts, arguing it breached his Charter rights to protest COVID-19 mandates.
I said this in another post on this topic: this is a white guy who is shocked–shocked, I tell you!–to find out that the legal system doesn’t just punish brown people.
FINTRAC was freezing bank accounts on brown people with impunity in the 2000s, but white conservatives didn’t care, but oh no, now the law applies to them and they’re finding out that, holy shit, the law is a motherfucker. And do they think it’s unfair to everyone? That perhaps we need to reexamine things and think about civil liberties? Nope, it’s Big Daddy Justin being mean to them, it can’t be that they’re finally getting the experience what everyone else has.
Hell hast no whining like a white conservative who’s found out that the law applies to them, too.
