*THREAD* on threats to Prime Minister of Canada ( @CanadianPM): 2010-2015 for PM Harper ( @stephenharper) & 2015-2020 for PM Trudeau ( @JustinTrudeau). *I only went with charges laid. Suspects plead/found Guilty, some were Acquitted/Not Guilty. I probably missed 1, sorry in advance.

I found that PM Harper was also accused of selling out Canada, treason etc. & I actually wanted to switch out "Harper" for "Trudeau" in that last paragraph because how it read the exact same way. :p
