    Trudeau was asked light-heartedly at an event today in Vancouver whether he jeopardized his security by snowboarding with his bodyguards.
     
     
     
     
    Trudeau praised the RCMP and said he was pleased to see they're as good on the slopes as they are anywhere else in the world, prompting applause and laughter from the crowd.
