From what I heard, they are unfreezing accounts of of yesterday. People who made small donations for the most part were not frozen. The couple that were likely were unfrozen by now.

"1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. {ordained: or, ordered} 2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: 4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. 5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. 6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God’s ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. " Romans 13:1-6 KJV "“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” John 17:17 KJV " 36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." John 3:36 KJV Do you have eternal life or do you have the wrath of God abiding on you?

People who consistently break the law, harass and harm other citizens who are just going about their lives, and who attempt to overthrow the democratically-elected government don't deserve the time of day. They are seditionists and anarchists. Our country has been very lenient with them so far and most of them have escaped any consequences for their illegal and seditious actions. Seditious speech is also questionable as to whether it is actually legal.

I don't support hate mongering. That's a lie. You know this whole convoy protest has caused me to withdraw my support for the conservatives. This kind of issue never came up until now. So the Conservative Party does not appear to be the same as it was in the past. That basically leaves me with no political party to support because I don't like any of them. But I definitely won't support a party that supports a law-breaking group. The Conservative MPs are completely wrong about all this. If you don't have law and order, you don't have a country. If you allow a group whose avowed purpose is to overthrow the democratic system, you don't have a country. So you are dead wrong. Not supporting anarchy and law-breaking is not hatred. It is just common sense. If you don't like the Covid restrictions you can protest peacefully without breaking the laws. If you want to break the laws to try to get your way and harm other people, I'm out of it. You're on your own and will pay the consequences, if not in this life, in the next.

Any country who desires unity must have it based on the laws that exist and civility. Without that, there is not going to be agreement. If a group's goal is to overthrow the government or demand things that are totally contrary to what the democratically-elected government is doing, how can there ever be agreement or unity? Obviously the ball is in the hands of those who make such unreasonable, and illegal demands. We have a democratically-elected Parliament which is the avenue to change things, not by an unelected group trying to use illegal means and coercion to force their demands on the country. Where is the common ground with such demands?

What we have been witnessing the last few weeks is chaos, illegal acts, and attempted subversion of our democratically-elected government. People may not agree with everything the government does, but we all have an obligation to support law and order, civility, and a united country. Without that we descend into chaos, division, and harm to countless fellow Canadians. Surely that is not something we want to happen. We should have learned that lesson from studying the history of Europe over the past 500 years. It has been a period of unprecedented wars, division, chaos, and death. Lets find ways to work together and heal our divisions. We can disagree on certain things, but there should be a limit to how far we push those disagreements. Law-breaking under the guise of peaceful protesting is not the answer. That drags us down the road of harm and anarchy. We have seen enough of that lately to know that. Our leaders have not set the best example either. By their poor choice of words and thoughts, they have generated more hostility and division. This is not the answer.

That is true, but the Ottawa police department was never designed, equipped, or manned for such an event as the occupation of Ottawa. They could never be expected to deal with that themselves. They could have arrested a lot more people here and there and tried to set up blockades on one or two streets, but they were correct in saying that doing that could have provoked anarchy and a massive backlash and criminality. They were simply not the right kind of force to control it. That was the problem. They could do nothing except keep a low profile and try to prevent random crimes. Then the provincial and federal governments were slow to respond to requests for help and took three weeks to finally get their act together. It finally took the O.P.P., the RCMP, and police form other parts of Canada who were flown in, to finally bring the occupation to an end.

No, I asked you a legitimate question. You created this topic but now don't want to answer a question about it. Figures. So you simply want to rant about our system of government and don't want to engage in serious discussion. You don't want anyone to question your claims. You are frivolously wasting everyone's time on here.

You are the one making the allegation that our system is broken and needs to be changed. So I ask you again to explain how our system is broken and what would you suggest we do to fix it?

We agree the world is a corrupt place with much evil. You are the making the claim that Canada is a very bad place and you don't like the system. So I asked you what is the alternative? What would you offer in place of what we have? How we get change the system? What exactly are you suggesting be done and how?

How would you propose to change the system and what kind of system would you like? If we change the system, what guarantee would there be that we would be better off? In a world of disorder, totalitarian systems, corruption, and evil, how do you think things would be better if we change the system we have?

Maybe try life in the Dominican Republic where 20% of the population live on $2 a day. Or their next door neighbour, Haiti, where the number of people living on nothing may be far higher. Canada has one of the highest standards of living in the world, vast opportunities for anyone who wants to make an effort and work for something. We also likely have more social assistance programs than anywhere else in the world. Jesus said the poor would always be with us. I',m not sure how you change that? Karl Marx had an idea but his ideas created misery for billions of people in the world in the USSR, China, and other places. What would you propose as the solution to create your utopia? Fascism or Communism or Socialism? Take your pick. There is no answer and no utopia possible in this world. We just have to learn to live with it. Donate to your soup kitchen.

'It ain't over:' COVID-19 won't become an endemic until the world is vaccinated | CTV News Quote An "endemic" is described—in its most simple definition—as a time in which there is constant presence of a virus, but it's not actively spreading. While health officials in Canada have started to hint the country is approaching endemic rates of infection, other experts warn we may still be months away from achieving it. On this week's episode of Life Unmasked, the team speaks with two such experts—a professor of immunology and a special advisor with the World Health Organization (WHO)—who cautions that while Canada may be faring well, COVID-19 can't be considered endemic unless the majority of people on planet earth have been vaccinated. Unquote It seems many believe we can take off the masks, throw them away, and forget the health guidelines and go back to normal because they believe the pandemic is over. They are completely wrong in my opinion. There are still roughly the same numbers of people dying every day from Covid or Covid assisted reasons. Protests in many countries prove that people are tired of all the health restrictions and the effects the pandemic has had on life. I don't blame them for being tired, worn out, and frustrated by the pandemic. But that doesn't change the fact that the pandemic is still there and much of the world has seen very little vaccination and virus is still spreading. There may also be more mutations of the virus down the road. We simply don't know and we don't know when this thing will end. So people in the 20 to 50 age group mainly seem to think they won't be effected so the world should stop the health restrictions and just go back to normal. They are wrong. This is a very self-centred point of view. It totally ignores those in society who may be seriously effected by Covid. It is not the kind of world we should desire. So the answer to the question Is the pandemic over is NO.

Convoy protesters seem to think there is no Covid virus spreading and many seem to think it is over. Or alternatively, they simply don't care. This is false.

"To kind of channel a song that I think everyone's heard of … it ain't over till it's over," Dr. Peter Singer, Special Advisor to the Director General of the WHO, told Life Unmasked. "And it's definitely, it ain't over." The WHO says that in order to end the acute phase of the pandemic by the end of 2022, they have set a goal that every country in the world should vaccinate about 70 per cent of their population. They hope to help facilitate that goal by July. "And we're not totally on track for that," he said, adding that it's also dangerous to assume Omicron is the last COVID-19 variant of concern.

Yes, a lot of these people think this is the American republic and they are following far right extremist ideology of the American far right, which hates any kind of government authority or health measures. They will get a surprise. I heard the police have been taking a lot of photographs and collecting a lot of information. Investigations, charges, and criminal prosecutions will likely go on for years. The investigations and counter actions by authorities will not end when Ottawa is cleared.

You are a far right American extremist trying to stir s__t in another country, but you lost all credibility with your nonsense.

When will you grow up? You must be a 50 year old kid. Total rubbish comments continually.

The protesters are nothing more than the young age group of yahoos that dance around in the streets screaming their heads off.

Only the dumbass protesters who don't know what they are supporting for the most part dislike Trudeau. These are the yahoos dancing around the street and screaming their heads off in Ottawa and other cities. By your comments you are an American far right/Confederate extremist who posts nothing but nonsense.

Ever heard of a dummkopf? People who don't believe in the Covid health measures and restrictions are dummkopfs.

If you had bothered to read my comment I said they should not ride their horses through the crowd. How ignorant can you be?

Nobody should be there protesting up in front of the police line let alone a fragile old woman. I saw her on the news. Those protesters have been warned countless times to go home and what they're doing is illegal, maybe criminal. A lot of them will be arrested and charged because of their stupidity. I admit, I don't think the police should have ridden their horses through the crowd though. Not sure what the reason for that was. Hopefully they will be told not to.

The illegal protesters and occupiers shout "freeeeedom"! They want the freedom to expose everyone else to Covid.

We have seen a lot misinformation on Covid vaccines and the health restrictions, which the protesters oppose. This website has some useful information about the subject. What Does the Bible Say about Coronavirus (COVID-19).htm? (christianbiblereference.org)

The Covid restrictions were being reduced in provinces anyway. Nothing to do with the protest. Do you know who the prince of this world is?
