Canadian Truck Convoy
February 5, 2022

Please BOYCOTT this website and use another platform. They stole the money the Canadian truckers raised online. We all need to ACT against this kind of tyranny and BOYCOTT GOFUNDME! I hope these truckers sue the $#*! off this company!

Theives! Do not trust GoFundMe with your donations. Appalling and disgusting behavior. Accusations of violence from the 2022 Canadian Freedom convoy are completely false!

Freedom convoy 2022
February 5, 2022

You have disgraced the people of Canada that are only asking for freedoms that they shouldn't have to ask for.

You have taken money that belongs to the tens of thousands of truck drivers fighting for those freedoms shame on you gofundme

THIEVES
February 5, 2022

Go fund me has no right to decide who, where, or how MY money donated to a SPECIFIC cause is spent. If I have donated to a cause that money MUST GO THERE! YOU ARE MISAPPROPRIATING FUNDS by using donations for one cause and giving them to another just because you don't like that cause! THE TRUCKERS MONEY IS THEIRS NOT YOURS!

GoFundMe is two-faced
February 6, 2022

The peaceful trucker blockade in Ottawa Canada is being portrayed as something else. GoFundMe has seized the 10 million dollars raised for the truckers to protest vaccine mandates. The following is from Becker News

"Neither the Ottawa Police nor GoFundMe provided any credible information tying 'violent' or 'unlawful' protesters to Freedom Convoy 2022 protesters. Seizing the funds would thereby constitute a fraudulent act.

GoFundMe has a track record of supporting Black Lives Matter, whose organizing spurred violent rioting in cities across the world. In the U.S. alone, Black Lives Matter-fueled riots did an estimated $2 billion in damages, and led to dozens of deaths."

Scum bag hack company that can't think for themselves. When you turn a blind eye to other protests that are actually divisive and penalize one that stands for unity, you are a hack company.

Liars and thieves!
February 5, 2022

These people are liars and thieves! To just shut down a huge platform ( Freedom Convoy 2022) and tell donors that they have a couple of weeks to request a refund or THEY will decide where that money will be donated?!? That's criminal! Hard working Canadians donated to something THEY chose. It's not GFM's right to now reallocate a single dime.

That money should automatically be refunded without anyone having to lift a finger.

If gofundme does not like the political views they will cancel the money raised and send to a charity of their own liking.
