Why does Ottawa want to put cash out of business?

Peter Shawn Taylor writes, "The lesson to be learned from the Freedom Convoy is that cash is a means to defend political freedom. And it seems Ottawa is thinking the same thing."

If cash is only kept for crises, then the financial and social infrastructure it requires to function will eventually wither away. It is therefore crucial not just to hold onto cash, but to spend it regularly. “Convince yourself and everyone you know to use cash at least once a week,” Zagorsky advised. “Buy something. Anything.” Your freedom may depend on it.
