VICTORIA - A protest banner hung on the outside facade of the British Columbia legislature has set off a police probe and an investigation by the clerk's office into the "external security breach."

A statement from the Office of the Clerk says the banner was put up overnight between Aug. 13 and Aug. 14 and the security breach was "being taken very seriously" with a full internal investigation underway.
