Canada’s money regulator admits Freedom Convoy donations had nothing to do with financing ‘terrorism’

by Anthony Murdoch

The deputy director of the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre acknowledged that people were ‘fed up with COVID and were upset and saw the demonstrations,’ and ‘just wanted to support the cause.’

(LifeSiteNews) – A top director for Canada’s official money regulator admitted that those who donated to the truckers’ Freedom Convoy just wanted to support the “cause” and that the contributions had nothing to do with financing “terrorism.”

“It was their own money,” said Barry MacKillop, who serves as the deputy director of the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre, to a House of Commons finance committee last Thursday as reported by Blacklock’s Reporter. 

MacKillop conceded that the money raised was not “cash that funded terrorism or was in any way money laundering.”

He added that these people were “fed up with COVID and were upset and saw the demonstrations,” and “just wanted to support the cause.”

MacKillop also said people who supported the Freedom Convoy financially “supported the cause before it was declared illegal.”
