Prince Charles and Camilla's visit to Canada: Further details about royal couple's Spring tour announced

Prince Charles and his wife Camilla will visit Canada next month as part of celebrations to mark Queen Elizabeth's 70th year on the British throne, his office said on Tuesday.

At the invitation of the Canadian Government and to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations, The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall will visit Canada from 17th to 19th May 2022.

The Prince of Wales’s first official tour to Canada was in 1970 and this visit will be the 19th time he has visited the country, having visited all ten provinces and three territories in the past. This will be The Duchess of Cornwall’s fifth official visit; Her Royal Highness’s first tour of Canada was more than a decade ago in November 2009.

"The Prince of Wales has long believed that we need to learn from indigenous peoples around the world how better we should live in and care for nature and the planet," Clarence House said in a statement.

"Canada is seeing the impact of climate change and so this tour will highlight an emphasis on learning from Indigenous Peoples in Canada as well as a focus on working with businesses to find a more sustainable way of living with global warming."

Members of the British royal family have been undertaking tours across the 14 other realms which have Queen Elizabeth as their head of state to mark her Platinum Jubilee as monarch, with Charles's younger brother Prince Edward and his wife currently visiting Caribbean nations.
