The royal couple planned visits to three provinces over seven days. In the lead-up to the tour, police and city officials did not release advance details. Here are some key stops along the way:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In the morning, Governor General Mary Simon presented the heir to the British throne with the Order of Military Merit at Rideau Hall.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At 10:50 a.m., the royal duo participated in a wreath-laying ceremony and a moment of silence at the National War Memorial on Elgin Street.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, they met with members and organizations of the Canadian-Ukrainian community at the Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin, located near Byron Avenue.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The royal couple took a stroll through ByWard Market alongside Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson, stopping to chat with vendors and greet members of the public. More than 100 people gathered to welcome them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prince Charles and the Duchess visited Assumption Elementary School in Vanier, where they engaged in discussions about education and spoke with parents.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Their next stop was a musical performance by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). The royal couple toured the stables with the RCMP commissioner and watched a specially prepared show.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ottawayes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2025\/02\/ad_4nxfrgsm_dh0h529zakmkqazpqt9oijjqrqcihpzkibnunxrprowpelwjvgxueqdjzceafvu0waey_i7lmgelocbyxj9a1eqt9ueeuuzgk-vweo48abvo7sfn7nrlk_hahtj_pmb-keyt_bpboyb0_fxde060mfpaocl.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Meeting_with_Ukrainians_in_Ottawa\"><\/span>Meeting with Ukrainians in Ottawa<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A significant moment of the tour was the royal couple\u2019s meeting with Ukrainians who had fled the war. Prince Charles and Camilla paid special attention to the issue and emphasized the importance of transitioning to a green economy as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin, the couple lit candles and attended a prayer service in solidarity with Ukraine. They also attached blue and yellow ribbons with the message &#8220;Stand with Ukraine.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outside the cathedral, the crowd chanted:<br>\u201cSlava Ukraini! Heroyam Slava!\u201d (Glory to Ukraine!

Despite this, the 2022 visit with Camilla was well-received by the public, with crowds growing larger each day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, during the visit, the royal couple faced calls from Indigenous leaders, including National Council of M\u00e9tis President Cassidy Caron, to apologize for the legacy of residential schools and work toward reconciliation with Indigenous peoples. In response, the royal couple stated that reconciliation was a key part of their visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ottawayes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2025\/02\/ad_4nxf1lfxrll8dx2u6wrfqdqebgdbthje_xjbvgqwvere27rkh7tn3p2au-ckrxjdrtfcs9ejs6lwc7vhaq44nq9e1jhhnlktm3fmkyzjgjzxbgln58svucqfca_xyqd-vlxivce0keyt_bpboyb0_fxde060mfpaocl.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Current_King_of_the_United_Kingdom\"><\/span>The Current King of the United Kingdom<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>King Charles III ascended the throne on September 8, 2022, following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
