Charles and Camilla Visit to Canada: 2-12 November 2009

[Patra]

Are there any current photos someone can post of the Canada trip? I'd love to see some. Thanks in advance!

[wbenson]

I don't think the plane has landed, so there aren't any pictures yet. Edit: They arrived at the airport about five or ten minutes after I originally posted.

Video of the arrival ceremony is currently streaming here.

Do not arrive?
Is already in the evening, right?

[ghost_night554]

I'm watching the arrival ceremony right now on CBC

[Nico]

Me too! Worth a watch !!!

I liked that Camilla looked like she wanted to laugh when he quoted Charles' speech.

One of the most formal welcome ceremony i've ever seen i must say. Very impressive. I've noticed a (diamonds?) canadian leaf brooch on the Duchess: a nice gesture. TRH seem very at ease and in good spirit.

[ghost_night554]

I'm loving this. Oh lord they'll be sick of drumming ceremonies by the time they reach Vancouver haha

[Nico]

Ooooooooh Charles in french !!!!!

[ghost_night554]

LOL! that was funny listening to him speak in French

I'm like Charles' speech sounds nice and heartwarming and sincere

Prince Charles says he is "deeply touched'' by the warm welcome afforded him and the Duchess of Cornwall in the royal couple's first trip to Canada together.

Prince embraces warm welcome - The Globe and Mail

ST. JOHN’S-The Prince of Wales and his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall were welcomed to Canada on Monday night by nearly 2,000 happy Newfoundlanders, who roared with approval as the royal couple walked a red carpet into a hockey arena in downtown St. John’s.

This is Charles' 15th trip to Canada. "That is, by any measure, something rather special. But more special still, if I may say so, is the opportunity to introduce my wife to Canada for her first-ever visit

Happy endings are for storybooks, not real life. But when Prince Charles arrives in Canada on Nov. 2 with his wife, Camilla, duchess of Cornwall, few Canadians can doubt that something like this has happened to their future king. Not long ago, Charles and the woman dubbed “the Rottweiler” by his then-wife incurred such global disapproval that even his mother had to keep him at arms’-length. Now their first visit as a couple puts the seal of approval on a union that has changed his life.

The Prince also paid tribute to the nation's sacrifices on the battlefield, the warmth and generosity of its people, and how it is tackling the challenges of the modern world.
His comments were made during a welcoming ceremony held last night in the remote coastal city of St John's in Newfoundland and Labrador

CBC is going to apparently have live coverage tonight at 6pm EST

[Jacknch]

That's a really lovely picture of TRHs standing with the lake behind them!

[cd255]

Thanks for all the nice pictures. Fingers crossed that there's no trouble making protestors. Brrrr it looks cold.

[puresnow]

Thank you all for the pictures and news.

Here's an article about what Charles and Camilla did today.
DiManno: Modest crowds greet royals in Newfoundland - thestar.com

I feel sorry for them being out in the cold. Where I am in Ontario, we were having mild weather, but today...it suddenly turned cold and there's snow in the forecast. I was planning on attending the Remembrance Day ceremony at the War Memorial in Ottawa next Wednesday, and apparently Charles and Camilla are going to be there, so I may catch a glimpse of them.

Thanks for the links.

Another article reveals that a new documentary entitled After Elizabeth II: Monarchy in Peril is to be aired in Canada -- basically stating that Charles on the throne may mean the end of the monarchy for them. Oh my... it's sad that people insist on making Charles and Camilla so unpopular despite their best efforts.
