While perhaps specifically Canada does not have this type of asset forfeiture, I’m not sure they’re a good example of financial liberty that we should aspire to here in the US.
As a Canadian I'd like to take this opportunity to ask you what you know about Canada.
Like what do you really know about Canada?
Because I'm getting the same "Montreal is the capital of Canada" vibes that I got from an American tourist when I was a little kid visiting the same tourist town that they were on summer vacation.
It astounds me how confidentially incorrect Americans (I'm assuming that you're American) are when it comes to their close neighbour.
I'm not an American, and instead of asking an open-ended counter question you could try to address the issue
Did they not freeze bank accounts of people donating to the freedom convoy? Please note that this is a question of facts and not opinions. It is also completely removed from whether you (or I for that matter) support this cause or find the means that they chose legitimate.
Not refuting it at all, just find it hard to see the relevance to the thread.
I would imagine that the funds that Canada froze in a unique situation are a rounding error compared to the funds some random US state seizes in a year.
Whatever their flaws so many other countries including Canada are so much better at this thing than the United States.
This is whataboutism. Both are bad, so where's your argument?
And this is relevant precisely because it's an example that shows the lack of financial liberty, that you could fall prey to in Canada. I thought it's a fitting answer to the parent comment.
