German Member of European Parliament Christine Anderson spoke about Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and warned about frozen bank accounts in Canada. .During the Freedom Convoy in 2022 Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberal government froze bank accounts of about 100 people. .Many protestors as well as members of the public who sent a donation had their accounts frozen. .Anderson, who has criticized Trudeau in the past, used the frozen bank accounts example as a warning against allowing government-run central banks to take over people’s money. .She explained the connection between CBDCs and digital ID and asserted it will be used to control the global population — and world leaders are attempting to achieve such absolute power through threats of climate change. .“If you don't comply, they will just shut down your bank account. And it's not like it hasn't happened before,” Anderson told Efrat Fenigson during a podcast. “Look to Canada. It has happened there. There were people standing up for their freedom, for their right not to get some unknown substance injected into their arms. They shut down their bank accounts. So if there was no cash, what are you going to do? They can just eliminate you with a flip of a switch. It's as simple as that.".Anderson explained world leaders were making the shift to CBDCs through carbon taxes, which are “just a very effective way to squeeze the last drop out of every taxpayer.”.She explained it was a way of fear mongering, “because since we’re all going to die, and we need to save lives, the whole shebang,” people are more likely to mindlessly hand over autonomy to the government. .“And that will be pretty much their way of forcing digital currency on people. Because that is for now their end goal,” she continued. “If there’s one thing the banks really fear right now, it’s cash. Because as long as there’s cash, there’s always the possibility of the most-feared thing in banks ever, a bank run.”.“But if there’s no cash anymore, you don’t have to deal with bank runs anymore. Because that would blow off the lid on the whole thing. Because once people started realizing [they couldn’t get their money out of the bank], it’s impossible,” Anderson explained. “If everyone decided to get their money out of the bank, there wouldn’t be any. There is no physical value supporting the trillions and trillions of dollars.”.“It’s pretty much to make sure there are no restrictions anymore on the quantity or on the amount of money they can actually create,” she added. “On top of all that, you will no longer be able to save up money. Because if you do, they might come, and already have done so, with negative interest rates. So you are actually losing money if you leave it sitting in the bank.”.“But you can't get it and stuff it under your pillow, as our grandmothers might have done, because there is no cash anymore. So now you’re being punished. You will no longer be able to buy anything without them knowing about it.”
