Prince Harry Dines with Veterans During Canada Visit
Prince Harry’s tour of Canada ahead of Remembrance Sunday included a gala event honoring veterans, where he reflected on his connection with Canadian troops and shared lighthearted moments. This visit follows the historic Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025, the first winter edition of the Games held earlier this year.
Event Highlights and Speech
At the National Tribute Dinner hosted by True Patriot Love in Toronto, Harry wore black tie and his service medals as he joined veterans. The evening opened with bagpipe music, after which the Duke spoke about his ties to the Canadian military, from training in Alberta to serving alongside Canadian Armed Forces during his Afghanistan deployment.
"He spoke on stage about his personal connection with Canada's military, from his training in Alberta to serving alongside Canadian Armed Forces members during his deployment in Afghanistan."
He also joked about going bald and addressed the recent controversy regarding he and Meghan Markle's choice to wear LA Dodgers caps at the World Series instead of supporting Toronto's Blue Jays.
Context of the Visit
- The visit coincided with Meghan Markle relaunching her acting career in Hollywood.
- It overlapped with Prince William’s five-day trip to Brazil to promote the Earthshot Prize, though Harry stated this was unintentional.
"Harry insists it was not deliberate" that his trip clashed with Prince William's Brazil visit.
This stop in Canada reflects Harry’s ongoing engagement with Commonwealth nations and veteran causes.
