The man who killed two people and attacked five more with a sword in Quebec City in 2020 has been sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years.

Carl Girouard was found guilty of two counts of first-degree murder and five counts of attempted murder.

Sporting a shaved head and an orange shirt, the young man sat still and looked at the floor as he listened to statements from his victims' families.Speaking via video-conference all the way from Paris, Duchesne's sister, Marie-Josée, gave an emotional account about how her life had changed since her brother was murdered.

Clermont's sister-in-law, Marie-Claude Veilleux, who was present in the courtroom and who also attended every day of Girouard's trial, took the stand.She told him she hoped he wouldn't cover his ears with his hands as she spoke, something she accused him of doing during the trial to "fake a mental illness."

They knew EXACTLY what they were voting for. Legault's dictatorship....Quebec to be avoid. How long before MSM begin demonizing QC and Legault for cancelling Energy east and other pipeline projects.
