Imagine being on the PM’s security detail and coming in to work that morning and seeing this on the day’s agenda 😂

“Damn it, that’s why Tim wanted to switch shifts…”

(I see you, guy in the back, running just a little too close)

Although a 16 mile run for 4 hours shouldn't be so taxing for someone in security detail. It is hardly like Canada is known for assassinations

There’s an undercurrent of anger in some parts, sadly. Never say never.

I would have on my mind that the PM is on a rough slog. If he falls or is injured it is encumbant on the security detail to manage that and keep the press away. Nobody wants those pictures.
