OTTAWA Crown prosecutors are asking that a Manitoba man who rammed a gate at Rideau Hall before arming himself and heading on foot toward Prime Minister Justin Trudeau s home last summer be sentenced to six years in prison, minus time served. The request came during sentencing arguments on Tuesday in the case of Corey Hurren, the 46-year-old sausage-maker and Canadian Ranger who pleaded guilty this month to eight charges in relation to the incident at Rideau Hall last July. Crown prosecutor Meaghan Cunningham told an Ottawa courtroom that Hurren s actions were far from benign, and posed a serious threat to public safety while setting up a potentially dangerous situation.
