'Politically motivated' death threats allegedly spray painted on Yukon NDP leader’s truck

Political leaders condemn "politically motivated" threats after Yukon NDP Leader Kate White’s truck allegedly vandalized between Friday evening and Saturday morning in Takhini

The Yukon NDP communications team said RCMP has been notified since someone allegedly spray painted death threats in two spots on Yukon NDP Leader Kate White’s truck parked outside her home in the Whitehorse neighbourhood of Takhini.  

Three of the truck’s tires were also slashed sometime between the evening of March 7 and the morning of March 8, according to Laurie Tritschler by phone on March 10. 

It’s the second time White's tires have been slashed in recent months, per Tritschler.
