>does that, absent a financial emergency power, mean we should normalize allowing foreign money to bankroll people with semis to blockade cities under the flag of protest?

If you're against that, the reasonable reaction would be to block foreign transfers and/or freeze the portion of funds that came from foreign sources, not ban them from the financial system entirely. Imagine the government shutting down an opposition candidate's campaign entirely, because it received a little too much money from foreign donors.

It is illegal for anyone who is not a Canadian citizen or permanent resident to contribute to a Canadian political party or campaign. This is also true in the United States.

This isn’t responding to the point in the comment directly above yours, from my perspective. That’s just restating the initial point.
