Prince Charles and Camilla to Visit Canada in November
Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales will be visiting Canada with his wife Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall for 11 days in November this year. The couple will visit 12 cities in the provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador, Ontario, British Columbia, and Quebec. The visit begins November 2 and ends on November 12.
The full itinerary will be announced later, but for now the Royals are expected to visit St. John's, Cupids, and Brigus in Newfoundland; Toronto, Hamilton, Niagara-on-the Lake, Petawawa, and Ottawa in Ontario; Victoria and Vancouver in British Columbia; and Gatineau and Montreal in Quebec.
Although Prince Charles has visited Canada 15 times, he hasn't been here since his visit in 2001, which was surprisingly popular. This will be Camilla's first official visit.
Lots more details on the Royal visit will become available later, as the Canadian Heritage Department plans to create a Website devoted to the event.

Comments
I will never forget what Prince Charles did to Diana and so I would not welcome him to Canada. I do not hate him and I acknowledge that he and Camilla love each other but they should have married in the beginning or given up the chance at the throne but he had no business ruining someone else’s life for his selfishness.
King Edward VIII had to abdicate his thrown because he wanted to marry divorcee Wallis Simpson.
Remarriage after divorce is opposed by the Church of England, and the people would not have tolerated Wallis as Queen.
So why is it that Prince Charles remains successor to the thrown when he is married to divorcee Camilla Parker Bowles who could become Queen one day?
