The first was an audience in London in March of 2025, followed by Charles’ visit to Canada in May of last year.

During his trip to Canada, King Charles delivered the throne speech in Parliament, the first time a British monarch has done so in decades. The moment was rife with symbolism amid U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war with Canada and attacks on its sovereignty.
