King Charles will make his inaugural visit to Canada as reigning monarch next week, and will deliver a speech from the throne that is expected to send a powerful message to Donald Trump

King Charles III is coming to Canada to deliver a message: Canada is a sovereign nation distinct from the United States. U.S. President Donald Trump’s repeated suggestion that the U.S. annex its northern neighbor prompted new Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney to invite Charles to give the speech from the throne on Tuesday where he will lay out the Canadian government’s agenda when Parliament reopens.
