A 51-year-old Montreal man, Marc-Andre Porlier, has been charged with making death threats against Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. The RCMP said Porlier sent the threatening remarks in an email to a senator and others. He was arrested after an investigation began on August 5 and appeared in court on August 8. This is the second death threat case against Carney this year. In March, police charged 55-year-old Paul Rindall of Winnipeg for posting multiple threats against the prime minister on X, along with hateful posts targeting Jewish and Muslim communities. The RCMP’s Federal Policing branch handles national security threats including those against designated persons.
