MONTREAL - The Quebec Liberal Party has complained to the Surete du Quebec and the Chief Elector Officer, saying its donors are being targeted.
The Reseau de Resistance du Quebecois (RRQ) has posted the names and addresses of everyone who has made a maximum or near-maximum donation to the Liberal party in 2008 and 2009.
The pro-independence group is asking its readers to write to the donors and demand they 'wake up' and pressure the Liberal government to hold a public inquiry into the contruction industry and party fundraising.
The RRQ says it has already sent letters to the 728 people who made $3000 donations to the Liberal party in 2008.
The letters it sent out have the historical image of a rifle-wielding Patriote, and the RRQ's leader, Patrick Bourgeois, says people will continue to be publicly identified and shamed until the Liberal party holds an inquiry.
Bourgeois and his group have successfully applied public pressure before.
Last year he was among a group of demonstrators that pelted soldiers with eggs to protest against the visit of Prince Charles.
Earlier in 2009, the National Battlefields Commission cancelled a planned re-enactment of the Battle of the Plains of Abraham after members of the RRQ threatened to take violent action.
