Today in 1936, King Edward VIII ascends to the throne following the death of his father King George V. He only serves until Dec. 11, 1936 when he abdicates the throne.
One of his few activities as King was unveiling the Vimy Memorial in France on July 26, 1936.

I wouldn't be impressed by meeting a king. I've stayed in enough hotels to know he's probably just two singles strapped together.

Do you know what it costs just to have the Honour Guard assembled for Charles and Diana when they came to visit Halifax?

This is why we should not encourage the visits, alone is expensive, changes in traffic, guards, dignitaries, limos, Media.. it's a zoo..

Canadian taxpayers spent at least $1 million hosting King Charles III, who was the Prince of Wales at the time, when he visited Canada earlier this year.

I have so little interest in that I don’t even consume critical mainstream entertainment takes, but Jeremy Clarke demonstrating that it makes him relieve his excrements through his mouth has convinced me that I *must* see that Netflix documentary. 🙃

Princess Diana meets with Canadians during her first official visit to Canada.
The crowds in Toronto were immense, hoping for a glimpse of the princess.
In all she made three official visits to Canada.

A flag-framed crown is lifted skyward on the Parliament buildings in 1939 in preparation for the visit of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. While visiting Ottawa, the Royal Couple would dedicate the National War Memorial in front of 10,000 war veterans.

Today in 1951, the month long tour of Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip comes to an end in Newfoundland. It was the first tour of Canada for the Royal Couple.
Three months after she returned to England, Elizabeth would become Queen.
