King Charles heads to Canada for a historic visit as the nation prepares for a rare royal parliamentary opening amid ongoing political tensions.
King Charles flies to Canada for a two-day visit, his first since becoming monarch in September 2022. Invited by Prime Minister Mark Carney, Charles will open Canada’s parliament on Tuesday, a role last held by his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, nearly seven decades ago. Despite ongoing cancer treatment, the 76-year-old monarch’s trip highlights his dedication to Canada, one of the 15 Commonwealth realms he reigns over.
The visit sends a clear message against suggestions by U.S. President Donald Trump that Canada could become the 51st U.S. state — a notion firmly rejected by Carney and supported by Canada’s envoy to the UK, Ralph Goodale. Alongside Queen Camilla, Charles will participate in cultural events and deliver a ceremonial speech that celebrates Canada’s history, democracy, and unity. This historic occasion aims to reinforce the strong bonds between Canada and the Crown amid current geopolitical tensions.
