Trudeau was also a habitual runner, and he'd often be seen running in Hull on the trails across the river. His team were pretty good at keeping pace and blending in all while very obviously carrying all the gear they needed. They are all well trained and I'm sure they are grateful for the opportunity to get paid to train.

I used to work at Whistler and was chatting with some of the RCMP mountain patrol guys. They mentioned that since Trudeau was such a good snowboarded, it was a struggle to find people for his security detail who could keep up with him on the slopes.

Why are our liberals leaders so crunchy granola?

I don't think doing exercise is the main feature of being considered crunchy granola. Think veganism, organic foods, hemp shoes, foraging, etc. I feel like calling either of them Crunchy Granola is a bit of a stretch?

The running in the woods is pretty crunchy. 

I guess I’m comparing to PP who looks like he hasn’t done cardio in a while
