The invocation of the Emergencies Act in 2022 allowed the federal government to freeze the bank accounts of 'Freedom Convoy' participants without a court order, sparking a fierce debate on civil liberties. Proponents argue that in an era of crowdsourced funding, freezing assets is a necessary tool to quickly dissolve illegal blockades that threaten the economy. Opponents argue that bypassing due process to seize assets sets a terrifying precedent, weaponizing the financial system against political dissidents.
