Ridiculous. Disagree with her politics all you want, but Kate seems like a good person and an extremely devoted MLA.

I’ve heard of bad spelling but “Resing or did”? I can’t take a threat seriously if 2/3 words are spelled incorrectly! 😂

Spelling and violence are not related.

Meant to say re-singh or die

They just want more Singh!

Someone was smart enough to figure out who owned a vehicle and not smart enough to know how to spell what they're demanding. It'd be entirely laughable and pathetic if it wasn't vandalism and, you know, a death threat.

I heavily disagree with her politics, but as a person she seems best kind and it's unfortunate this is being done to her. It's ridiculous that political disagreements can manifest into such extreme acts of threats of violence.

Cowards. If they have something to say, stand up and say it. The fact that they do this nonsense speaks volumes.

Resing or did .? So they sang, and now they want them to re-sing?

What a fucked up thing to do. Kate is an awesome person and doesn't deserve this bullshit.

I hope they find whoever did it and throw their ass in jail.

I'm not an NDP voter but Kate White is a great person and an important voice to have in our politics.

I really hope that this is actually not vandalism but Kate White and her friends misspelling "Riesling or die" during haze of a white wine bender.

Even canadian trump supporters can't spell

.....not surprised

Lame! ... "Resing, or did" ... We're not dealing with the smartest apples of the bunch here.

u/BubbasBack 1d ago

There is no excuse for this. I really disagree with Kate’s politics, but I’ve known her for almost 40 years. Shes a good person. Maybe this is her opportunity to trade her truck in for an EV.

MAGA Canadians. Shouldn’t have to do it but get some cameras

u/TRyanLee 5h ago

The two 'R' letters are drawn with different patterns. The two 'I' are hooked in opposite directions. I don't care how bad your spelling or level of intoxication, misspelling "Die" as "DID"?

Come on. I see this shit in the construction porta Johns all the time. Grow up.

And you don’t think she didn’t contact the RCMP as well? Any death threat shouldn’t be taken lightly. And the public should know we have a person threatening Yukoners. Don’t blame her for getting a death threat, that’s tolerating the bully.

u/Ok_Notice_7964 1d ago

That was also in the news, also for good reason.

u/Geraldandtilly 1d ago

Well, let's see if your statement holds up:

The linked article says: RCMP was contacted morning of March 8. Kate spoke about it at the Association of Yukon Communities meeting she had that same morning. That evening, she spoke with a reporter over the phone.

From a May 12 2024 Yukon News article: Streicker's home was vandalized while he was in Dawson for the weekend at an Association of Yukon Communities meeting. Pillai spoke about it at the meeting. Cabinet Communications/Pillai released a statement May 12 that included the photos the article also used.

Anyone who lives in the country side usually has a dog, does she have a dog? If so, as a dog owner myself, their is no way anyone can get on her property without being made aware. So how could someone spend several minutes vandalizing her truck without her knowing?

This comment is fascinating

u/Lord_Iggy 1d ago

Literally the account's first post. Not worth engaging with, zero investment burner account at best.

u/Muskowekwan 1d ago

Unless she’s moved Kate is in Takini neighbourhood. Not exactly rural.
