WNU Editor: I am not sure about the above Daily Mail report. The Prime Minister and his family have a massive security detail and any abrupt move will be noticed. My guess is that he has been at isolating at Harrington Lake for the past few days because of a Covid exposure. 

Update: The Prime Minister's office has been adamant that he is isolating due to a possible exposure to Covid .... Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's isolation due to child testing positive for COVID-19 (CTV News). More here .... Trudeau says he's isolating after exposure to COVID-19 (CBC).
