I'm sorry to hear you have such little respect for the basic functioning of our judicial system.
How did folks donate to Jan 6th if no one knew it was happening. Or are you referring to after the fact millions was donated to the cause of freeing those individuals arrested? Many CDN's donated so the truckers could buy fuel, eat and take care of their families. Their donations were not for storming the capital.
As well it is not possible to donate to defense funds for these individuals
As for not respecting our judical system. Please look up Justin Trudeau /SNC and you will see the lack of respect for our judical system. Maybe these Truckers are standing up for CDN jobs. That is the threshold for breaking the law.
Also what is the need for the Emergency Act now? Everyone is gone. Are they scared of a 100 trucks many of them not semi's parked on a farm 100 km away?
