King Charles III Delivers Rare Speech to Canada’s Parliament

King Charles III delivered a rare speech opening Canada’s parliament in Ottawa on Tuesday, May 27, 2025, emphasizing the country's proud independence.
The speech followed repeated annexation threats and tariff wars from US President Donald Trump, leading Prime Minister Mark Carney to invite the king to affirm Canada's sovereignty.
Delivered in the Senate by Charles, the speech set out government priorities like “build Canada strong” and highlighted Canadian values including democracy and self-determination amid global uncertainty.
Charles warned that we are facing a global environment more perilous and unpredictable than any time since World War II, while Carney emphasized that the planned economic overhaul would strengthen Canada's ability to confront challenges posed by Trump.
The event symbolized national unity against external pressure, boosting support for Charles and the monarchy in Canada, where polls show renewed pride and increased backing for maintaining ties to the Crown.
