Battle over convoy cash continues as freeze order extended to May

CBC quotes Monique Jilesen on her recent court appearance, which extended the Mareva injunction freezing the funds donated to the Freedom Convoy protest and status of the digital currency. Monique says that the extension is to ensure all the money involved in the protests included in the civil case has been moved to the escrow account.

"Without knowing yet whether there are any additional assets which are not yet subject to the escrow order, the injunction should be extended until we have that assurance," said Monique Jilesen, a lawyer with Lenczner Slaght who is involved in the civil case against the protest organizers.
