He's coming out of the gate flying, he's not going to stop. I'm very proud of him.He's doing what is best for canada! He has to open more exports to the e u or the u.K!
I'm sure it will annoy both republicans and Republicans, but it's a smart move. It reminds Trumpsters that Canada is very different from America, *not* America's colony, and that the King will happily come to him, whereas Trump has to come to London, and only if he's invited.
Yes, I’m not a fan of the monarchy but this tells Trump & his regime that we’re still with Britain & the EU & other like-minded countries that value democracy .
Diana was sweet. She visited one of my best friends sister twice in Children’s Hospital in Vancouver, BC. Years apart too. She was super cool. I could maybe party with Harry too ?! Haha
I mean honestly if by the end of this Trump has some stupid Duke of shutupayourface title and Britain is an empire again. Well awesome frankly. Thankyou.
Trump apparently mused about the US becoming a Commonwealth country lol. I don't think he knows what that means. Probably thinks he can be king of that too.
I don't see how he could realistically refuse, now that the invitation has been made publicly.
A refusal here would almost certainly be the push that Canadian republicans need to get rid of the Monarchy - if he's going to refuse his ceremonial duties when asked, what good is he?
He does have his health to consider.
Any travel abroad needs to well planned in advance even more so than before he started treatment for cancer.
Hopefully he will be able to do it though
Nothing says we're a sovereign country more than asking the king of England to deliver the speech from the throne. Yes I know he's technically the king of Canada, but I think this is a stupid idea.
Cool. That's fun for the King, his mother the Queen did that a few times too so he'll get to affirm Canada in the process while still being neutral wink wink say no more. A simple ceremony used well by Carney to stick it to Trump which frankly everyone on earth wants to do so that's just a bonus

We've got a king, why not use him to remind the orange dictator we've got reliable allies?
Trump is at heart very much an absolute monarchist.

Otherwise I agree that it's a good move.
I mean, there's an usher of the black rod knocking on doors and everything.
And you expect no pomp and circumstance when it's the King making the speech? You expect him to show up in sweats?
Unhelpful
I don't want them to go over the top for Camilla and her tampon.
