Legault evaluating police protection for candidate who was victim of threats
Coalition Avenir Quebec Leader Francois Legault is considering whether to offer police protection to one of his candidates who recently received threats.
Legault says ex-Montreal police spokesman Ian Lafreniere needs to be protected.
Election campaign-style posters with an image of Lafreniere with a bullet in his head were recently displayed at a junior college north of Montreal.
The image originally surfaced in 2013 but its author is unknown.
