Those SUVs

So it appears that the RCMP had a pretty good reason to upgrade to SUVs to protect the Prime Minister. I bet people who tried to beat up the Prime Minister over that feel like idiots now.

Update: Kate McMillan has that link I was looking for.

“I bet people who tried to beat up the Prime Minister over that feel like idiots now.”

I don’t know about that. CTV news just had a story where they pointed out that PM Stephen Harper’s office was more vulnerable to terrorist attacks than the other Parliamentary buildings and then they panned onto a frontview of the building where his office is located. Could it be that CTV is sending a message to terrorists: “Over here guys! The Prime Minister is over here. Come and get him!”

So it appears that the RCMP had a pretty good reason to upgrade to SUVs to protect the Prime Minister.

Okay, that’s just stupid. Do you really think the choice of vehicles in the PM’s security motorcade play a role in security? If so, then how do you account for all the US presidents who got by without them?

Yes, presidents like Lincoln, Garfield, Kennedy, Reagan…. duh
