This woman has an issue with her bank, and not her government.

I expect what has happened is that she had solicited funds for her campaign and received unusual flows of money, considering she resides in Mexico, to her account which then triggered an issue with her bank.

The post is bordering close enough to “unhinged” that I’m not taking this woman’s word for it. There’s a story here, but we aren’t going to get the whole of it from her.

But given enough extrapolation, I think your explanation is probably close. To add further by reading between the lines, the handling of a political campaign account was probably loosey-goosey enough on the details (“no, you CANNOT spend it on…”) that something got triggered.

Probably yes, foreign money flowing to a bank account used to fund a political party will blink in all colors in the corruption and money laundering dpt of any bank.

I don't know in Canada, but in a lot of other countries, all accounts and money used by a candidate to an election is tightly limited in income and expenses. Not just anyone can use that as a current account or send in any money from random individuals.
