Justin Trudeau has ordered the seizure of all assets, the freezing of bank accounts, and the cancelation of credit cards for all persons identified by the government to be either directly or indirectly participating in, or supporting, the truckers who are protesting his vaccine mandate.
In short, those Canadians exercising their right to assemble and speak freely in opposition to their government's policies will no longer be allowed to even buy food, pay rent, or otherwise provide for their families. And all this is in addition to their being arrested and forfeiting their trucks to the Crown.

The truckers have accomplished what they set out to do. They’ve shown the Canadian people what kind of leadership they are lacking. God bless them

A question to ask, in order to answer the headline's question, would be, "How many Canadian's are still believing they are provided the news and not propaganda on just about any topic, by their MSM propagandists?"

Go to the bank and withdraw all of your money. Then sit home with the truck "broke down" and disabled with Covid. An appropriate sick out is in order but the truck has to rendered unusable so it cannot be confiscated.

I believe that the protesting Canadian truckers should get out of Ottawa and the other places where they have been protesting rather than subject themselves, their trucks, their finances, and even their dogs who ride along with them, to arrest or seizure, and drive their trucks home, park them, and stay at home until the current leftist and socialist Canadian Government comes to their senses. Hopefully all the other non-protesting Canadian truckers across Canada will find the testicular fortitude to not leave behind the Canadian truckers who protested in public, and will drive home and also park their trucks until the Government there comes to their senses. If the Canadian truckers all across Canada stick together, it would not be long before supply chains get clogged up from the Atlantic to the Pacific with the Government there dropping their draconian heavy handed policies and take a fresh look at their COVID policies. A good part of my family is of Scottish decent and lived in peaceful rural Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island for 150 years or so after which some immigrated to the USA. None of them can believe the actions that Trudeau and his cabal are taking in Canada these days!

I saw a piece in the Epoch Times that the trucker leadership has made a decision to leave and that they are asking a very heavy handed police force to let them leave peaceably. Some of the police have caused damage to trucks as well.
I appreciate and bless the truckers for what they have started on a global scale but at the end of the day their safety as well as their families safety is of paramount importance. They also have to prevent their trucks (their livelihoods) from being damaged. This is an initial report so I'm sure there will be updates.

Hopefully one of them will run over Castro's Bustard.
In seriousness, I am sure Catro's Bustard is hoping they turn violent. That's all leftists understand.

I'd advise the truckers to come south to the U.S., except I'll bet Washington will imitate Ottawa when our truckers do a protest convoy of their own. Of late, individual liberty and limited government are getting close to needing hospice.

Not only that but their children will be rounded up and placed in protective child custody and be made wards of the state at which point they will be vaccinated against the will of their parents. Also if they had pets along, they will be placed in a dog pound for 8 days at the expense of the owners. Of course, since their bank accounts are frozen they can't pay and after 8 days they will be killed. LRAD, Long Range Acoustic Device military weapons have been verified to have been used against the truckers causing headaches burns, and other medical problems. The iron-fisted stranglehold of Trudeau is tightening against his own people. Let's Geaux Brandeau! All this coming to a city near you where the big upcoming USA cross country truckers rally is headed. Just wait till it gets to DC and see what happens. Hold the line, be prepared and remember rebellion against tyranny is obedience to God.

The truckers will be found liable for damages which will ruin them. They'd have been better off just striking.

Park their trucks. Then FJT can ensure the Canadians that all will be well, as Canada's supply chain grinds to a halt.

Not sure about the accuracy but a poll out of Canada said 66% of Canadians approve of the imposition of the Emergencies Act. If true, Canada’s goose is cooked.

In normal times Canadian truckers would be in violation of the US Immigration laws if they illegally crossed the Canada-USA borderline with the intention of trucking cargo from one point to another in the USA. They still would today if Biden were to legitimately be enforcing those immigration laws. But these are not normal times as the US Government claims that the USA is currently short of 80,000 qualified truckers. Biden has also opened the US borderlines to all comers from all over the world and has said that he will no longer authorize the deportation of any illegal aliens found in the USA who are not dangerous and violent criminals. Biden reason for that is to flood the USA with mostly all poor and uneducated illegal aliens who the Democrats believe they can transform into leftist and socialist Democrat voters by the tens of millions in the years ahead. So once Canadian truckers and their trucks get into the USA, they obtain USA commercial drivers licenses, and the trucks are registered and insured in the USA, according to Biden they would be “home free” for as long as Biden is the US President, or until he changes his policies and starts kickIng only Canadian truckers out of the USA that would be a unlawful discriminatory action based upon their foreign origin, unless he also started kicking out all other illegal aliens who are working without permission in the USA. Biden will not do that as some of his business supporters want an unlimited flow of cheap foreign labor to be continued to be allowed for flow into the USA.

'They came for the truckers but I didn't say anything because I'm not a Canadian trucker. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me.' I can see 1930s Germany just to the north. Is there anyone left there to speak up now that Emperor Justin has issued his edict to dramatically punish the truckers that are the backbone of the Canadian economy?

I think there should be a call for a national strike.

In a civilized country, these actions cannot be done without a due process of law in each individual case. Canada used to be civilized.

The question to ask should be what will Canada do without truckers? And the other question to ask is would you trust your money to a bank that would seize it without due process? Anyone who has their money in a Canadian bank at this point is an idiot. It is a lot safer under your mattress than it is subject to the whims of a wannabe dictator who seems to think he owns everything that the Canadian people own. My suggestion is the truckers need to take their case to the Hague because this is a problem that could in fact affect the trust people have in our banking systems. These are outrageous human rights violations, threatening to take their pets and euthanize them? taking their children with no legal explanation? You Canadians might as well start wearing stars on your jackets and use boxcars for transport because that seems to be the path this maniac is taking you down.

Canadians and Americans should financially support these truckers. Yes, it is more difficult since the funding platforms are in on the tyrrany, but it can be done. Find a trucker, take his/her electric bill and pay it. Buy some groceries and deliver them to his/her family.

My prayers go out to the truckers and all the Canadian people. I was having a chat earlier with a snowbird Canadian neighbor of mine I’m friendly with and he’s quite unhappy with the truckers and the fact that they’re blocking traffic. So who knows what’s happening and what they’re thinking up there?
