Her Majesty is the Queen of Canada so her visits to Canada are planned usually 2 years in advanced. It's been known that Her Majesty will come to Canada next may for some time, however, the trip will not be officially announced till next spring.

As for the Queen's other foreign trips they will most likely be announced in the throne speech later this year or some time next year. Due to security reasons we hear about trips at the last minute more often.

this is what the official site said:

When does the State Opening of Parliament take place?

This session's State Opening took place on the 26 November 2003. The State Opening usually takes place in October or November on the first day of the new parliamentary session. We do not yet know the date of the State Opening in 2004. There is also be a State Opening shortly after a general election. See State Opening of Parliament FAQs.
