King Charles and Camilla support Canada after Trump’s threats

Royal couple celebrate Canada House centenary in London on eve of official visit to North American country as diplomatic tension with U.S. grows

King Charles III and Queen Camilla have publicly expressed their support for Canada at a time of delicate international balances. Just days after their first official trip to the country since their coronation, the sovereigns attended a commemorative ceremony in London to mark the centenary of Canada House, home of the Canadian High Commission, located in the heart of the British capital.

The symbolism-filled event comes in a context made more tense by recent statements by U.S. President Donald Trump, who has raised controversy by questioning Canadian sovereignty with the possibility of eventual annexation. A provocation that has also provoked critical reactions on the British side, just as Downing Street prepares to welcome Trump for a second official visit to the United Kingdom in September.

The royal trip to Canada, scheduled for next Monday and Tuesday, will include the solemn opening of the new parliament in Ottawa by the sovereign. A significant moment, also in light of the recent inauguration of the new prime minister, Mark Carney, former governor of the Bank of England. Carney recently criticized British Prime Minister Keir Starmer for his formal invitation to Trump, which was deemed inappropriate given the ongoing diplomatic tension.

During the ceremony at Canada House, King Charles and the queen were welcomed by High Commissioner Ralph Goodale and his deputy Robert Fry. The building, which opened in 1925, is considered one of the symbols of the Canadian presence in London. As a sign of historical continuity, Goodale presented the king with a commemorative bronze, silver and Canadian nickel key, designed by indigenous artist Ts’myen Morgan Asoyuf. The gesture recalls the original key given to King George V a century ago.

Camilla, for the occasion, wore a classically cut floral dress, while Charles opted for a cream suit, both in keeping with the sobriety of the event. The presence of the royal couple underscores not only the historical ties between the UK and Canada, but also an implicit political message: support for Canada’s stability and national identity at a time of geopolitical challenges.
