The crowdfunding platform claimed the convoy fundraiser - which raised $10million Canadian dollars ($8 million USD) in support of truckers protesting against COVID-19 vaccine mandates - violated its terms of service 'which prohibits the promotion of violence and harassment.'

GoFundMe plans to distribute the remaining $9million of donated funds to 'credible and established charities' that were reportedly chosen by the convoy organizers and have been verified by the platform.

Canadian people and perhaps people around the world donated their money to fund Freedom Convoy, but GoFundMe closed the account, and not refunding the donation, instead they tried to distribute the funds to the organization that they like. This is blatant fraud!

Instead of using a site like GoFundMe, why doesn't Freedom Convoy uses crypto? It is faster and the government can't steal the donation.
