The broadcaster dispatched a reporter to North Captiva Island, a largely recreational island where Trudeau reportedly rented two large homes for his family and entourage. North Captiva Island is accessible only by charter boat, and cars are banned, with the only motorized transportation being golf carts. Trudeau’s typical bodyguards are plainclothes RCMP who closely resemble the Secret Service details that typically surround U.S. presidents and VIPs. However, as a visiting dignitary, it’s possible that Trudeau was supplied with U.S. Secret Service agents for added protection. Trudeau is one of approximately 3.5 million Canadians who visit Florida every year.
