SASKATOON – A 25-year-old woman who made online threats against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was given a conditional discharge. This means Marly Dansereau won’t have a criminal record.
The Crown and defence entered a joint submission to Saskatoon Provincial Court on Jan. 10, which the judge accepted.
Videos on an informal group chat between Alberta and Saskatchewan residents, which some in the chat didn't know was being secretly recorded and then posted online, show Dansereau making comments that Trudeau had been only a few hours away from her and if someone paid her to take time off work she would "do it."
This report by SASKTODAY was first published Jan. 12, 2024.
Correction: Marly Dansereau was given a conditional discharge and not a conditional sentence.
