Mounties to guard Prime Minister 24/7

The R-C-M-P will now stand guard over the Prime Minister 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Commissioner Bob Paulson says the P-M’s protective detail will be with him constantly following Wednesday’s shooting incident on Parliament Hill.

Harper was with his caucus when gunshots rang out and several Conservatives say he initially tried to leave but was persuaded to stay in the room.

The prime minister was reportedly hidden in a closet like space for several minutes until police were able to escort him to a safe location.
