		</div><p>Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has worn an armoured vest and appeared with a heavy security detail at an election rally.</p>
<p>Officials would not reveal the nature of the threat.</p>
<p>It resulted in a 90-minute delay before Mr Trudeau appeared before about 2,000 supporters who had turned out as the election campaign before the October 21 vote.</p>
<p>Mr Trudeau wore a suit jacket rather than his usual rolled-up sleeves and loosened tie, and was wearing a vest, which was noticeable in photos taken at the event.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Any threat made against <a href="https://twitter.com/JustinTrudeau?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@JustinTrudeau</a>, or any leader, is troubling to all of us. No matter how you vote or believe, no one should face threats of violence. To the officers who protect all of us – thank you.</p>

<p>He was escorted through crowd by a large number of plainclothes Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) officers as well as Mounties dressed in green tactical gear.</p>
<p>RCMP spokeswoman Stephanie Dumoulin said they do not comment on security measures given to the prime minister.</p>
<p>A spokeswoman Mr Trudeau also declined comment.</p>
<div data-google-query-id="CK3nhdeFmeUCFcShewodfl0Gfw">
<p>Prepared remarks had indicated that Mr Trudeau’s wife, Sophie Gregoire Trudeau, was to introduce the Liberal leader. She did not appear or take the stage during the rally.</p>
<p><em>“Very upsetting to hear that Justin Trudeau had to wear a bulletproof vest tonight at a campaign event,”</em> opposition Conservative leader Andrew Scheer tweeted.</p>
<p><em>“Threats of violence against political leaders have absolutely no place in our democracy.”</em></p>
<p>Opposition NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh was the first to tweet his concern.</p>
<p><em>“Any threat made against JustinTrudeau, or any leader, is troubling to all of us,”</em> he wrote. <em>“No matter how you vote or believe, no one should face threats of violence. To the officers who protect all of us – thank you.”</em></p>
