Police Escort in Calgary Today - Who Dat?

[4X4]

I saw the convoy as well. They went down McKnight and turned north on 12th then went in behind the postal depot. I only saw the tail end of it, but it involved at least 12 or 14 cop vehicles including cruisers, trucks and motorcycles. All that for three or four black cadillacs.

That is what I heard along with a helicopter being on standby at all times in case he needed to be evacuated at any given point in time. Might be overkill but at the same point in time isn't it better to be safe rather than sorry.

Stephen Harper's mom has a better convoy than that!

...Seriously, at least 20 black luxury cars/SUV's. She lives in Scenic Acres.
