Sounds like the business owner has entered the "find out" stage.

We love seeing good things happen to horrible people. Not enough of that these days.

This is actually quite similar to what happened to a local Ottawa business a few years ago https://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/stella-lunas-wellington-location-closes-its-doors

TL;DR they supported the trucker convoy and then people stopped going to their two locations. They also got a newly-opened business in the same building kicked out. Both times they complained about the finding out part of FAFO. Eventually they closed two locations because they couldn't make money.

It was actually the best thing, because now the city's best ice cream shop is in that location and has long lines every night. I just hope the convoy supporters would close their remaining location...

Haha, I didn't know that place closed down. I went when I visited in the summer of 23. Like most things in Ottawa, it was over hyped and over priced.

Canadians have been fighting off American imperialism since 1776

Still too many american sympathizers around in my opinion
