[i]chaos meant to destabilize democracies in the west.

Yes. There is evidence if significant funding from the US. Somme 30% (in small donations) from Canada, around 20% from other countries and a whopping 52% from large American donors. GOFUNDME shut down donations but this relatively new crowdfunding (religious) is taking donations.

The whole event was organized by a leader of the Maverick Party which promotes the exit of Alberta from Canada, abundantly supported by members of the Oath Keepers, Proud Boys and others of their ilk. Reichwing news, along with Ted Cruz and a bunch of reichwing congresscritters have voiced their support -- and I had heard that a similar protest is being planned in early March in the US. There are other such protests going on in some European countries.

A plan to destabilize the west? Yes indeed. Can there be any doubt?
