From Eddy E:

'Wow, I didn't know Canada even had a finance minister.

Here's the 411:

A stockbroker from Louisiana has been charged with threatening to kill Finance Minister Jim Flaherty and his family.

The U.S. Attorney's Office alleges that 59-year-old Lloyd Dewitt Tiller, Jr., of Shreveport, La., sent threatening e-mails to the Canadian official late last year and early this year.

Mr. Tiller allegedly claimed he and his clients lost almost $6-million after Mr. Flaherty's decision to tax income trusts last fall.

In the first e-mail, sent on Nov. 13, he threatened to hurt Mr. Flaherty.

In the second, sent Jan. 18, he "threatened to injure both Mr. Flaherty and members of his family," the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Louisiana, Donald Washington, wrote in a statement.

In February, a plainclothes guard was assigned to Mr. Flaherty after investor anger over the Conservatives' income-trust tax. The minister's office at the time refused to discuss whether a death threat prompted the extra security measures.

Global News reported Monday night that Mr. Tiller allegedly wrote that “I am going to cut your ... throat ... you can't hide, I will find you,” and “You have killed my business as a stockbroker ... you have ruined my life and many of my clients life (sic) and I hear you think it is funny.”

You realize that sending a death threat by email would make the shortest Law & Order episode ever.
