Grabblers Scrabbling for Truckers Money

There are a lot of people eyeing the truckers money; rubbing their hands together … scheming and mumbling to themselves.

While it is not immediately clear from the story, the question that must be asked is, why there was any amount of money left in those accounts to be ceased? Why had that money not been distributed to truckers for fuel, for family support and for ongoing supplies which are needed to keep the trucker movement going? Surely there have been at least 1 million dollars of expenses incurred at this point …

The real truth is: All of the convoy participants including those currently at border crossings are self-supported. In other words, we are paying for this out of our own pockets. We are supplying our own fuel, food and supplies and we are all taking hits on our personal income by spending time protesting rather than working.

So where is/was the truckers money going?

Make no mistake … the money was for the truckers. It was given freely by everyday common people who felt there was little they could do in their circumstances of life, but they could donate a few dollars to those on the front lines.

And who are these ‘organizers?’

10 millions dollars changes people. Wait, no. It does not change people. It reveals who they are. And it seems there are a lot of questions to be asked of the self appointed fabulous 4 who have declared themselves the ONLY spokespeople for the truckers protests. How can an organic, populous driven movement be ‘organized’ by 4 people? How did they get appointed as the ONLY people who can speak for all? How and how much are they being paid for their ‘work’ on behalf of the truckers? Lots of questions.

Then there are the banks = more scummy grabblers.

Why did TD go to the courts to get permission to seize the money?

TD applied to the Ontario Superior Court of Justice on Friday to take the funds, which were sent through GoFundMe and bank transfers, so they can either be sent to the intended recipients or returned to the donors “who have requested refunds but whose entitlement to a refund cannot be determined by TD,” the bank said in a statement.

I seriously doubt the TD bank has ANY intention of sending the money they now control to ‘the intended recipients’ or to return the money to donors. Banks never do things for altruistic reasons, ever. Why would we believe they have suddenly changed and just want the money to go to the right people? Essentially the money in those accounts has gone from being controlled by the ‘4 official spokespeople’ to being controlled by a faceless unaccountable corporate entity whose sole purpose is to generate income. Great. Pot meet kettle.

In the end the money grubbers are gonna grabble while the people on the front lines will continue to support themselves.

If you want to support the trucker movement, do NOT give your money to shady people. Give it directly to the people on the front lines. Load up a prepaid credit card and give it directly to someone standing for your freedom. Bring a box of cookies or a jerry can of fuel to the real front lines. Support those who you can see with your own eyes … not those you see on television.

Grabblers gonna grabble. Use your money and resources wisely.
