Garage set on fire. Smashed windows. MPs and elected officials are rattled by rising intimidation and threats — and ‘someone is going to get seriously hurt’
OTTAWA — It seems only a matter of time before an elected official in Canada gets seriously hurt.
In March, somebody set fire to the garage at Liberal MP Brendan Hanley’s Yukon home.
No one was injured in the blaze that destroyed the garage, two cars and a motorbike, but it left him “shocked,” profoundly shaken, and fearful about the safety of his family, neighbours and those close to him.
