GoFundMe on Friday shut down the massive $9 million fundraiser for Canadian truckers after speaking with "law enforcement and city officials" who claimed it was an "occupation." GoFundMe said in a statement they're going to redirect the funds to "credible and established charities" of the organizers' choosing or will give refunds to those who ask for them over the next two weeks. From GoFundMe, "UPDATE: GoFundMe Statement on the Freedom Convoy 2022 Fundraiser": - GoFundMe supports peaceful protests and we believe that was the intention of the Freedom Convoy 2022 fundraiser when it was first created.Ottawa City Councillor Mathieu Fleury on Monday called for the funds to be seized to "cover City expenses from incidents from the protests." As a reminder, GoFundMe hosted hundreds of fundraisers for Black Lives Matter rioters and paid out millions to bail them out of jail. I'm sure police in Minneapolis, Portland, Kenosha and elsewhere would have loved for GoFundMe to cut off those rioters' funding but they kept the money flowing regardless. GiveSendGo said they're willing to host the fundraiser and shared this link on Gab. At this point, it wouldn't shock me if Trudeau and his cronies tried to go after GiveSendGo using anti-terrorism laws. UPDATE: Speak of the devil!
