news? We never see him travel except for helicopter. That is probably a security thing. I remember when Reagan came to ottawa first they repaved the ceremonial route and then the day of ss people were parking their cars on an angle, over the curve, and all wearing pilot shades and trench coats. We knew exactly where Reagan was going to drive. Was true with George W. Bush too. When Obama was in town i wondered if i would see him drive by the mall i had to work at. Turns out he was a block away walking around the Byward Market saying hi to people. I missed him. But it was not announced. Or telegraphed.
