Nathan Tidridge, the author of a book about Canada's constitutional monarchy and vice-president of the Institute for the Study of the Crown in Canada, says Charles thus far appears to be a more 'active and engaged' ruler than his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II
MONTREAL — King Charles III's first months on the throne have shown he's a monarch who will take an active role in different causes and is ready to engage with the public, royal experts say, but he still has work to do to win over a skeptical Canadian public.
Carolyn Harris, a historian and commentator on the Royal Family, says King Charles appears to be working hard to connect with the public by interacting with people from all walks of life. Polling released in March by marketing firm Leger found a majority of Canadians surveyed, at 67 per cent, were indifferent to the King, compared to only 12 per cent who said it was good that he was monarch.
She said Charles and Camilla, along with Prince William and his wife Kate, have been well-received on visits to Canada, including a three-day tour last May that brought Charles and Camilla to Newfoundland, Ottawa and the Northwest Territories. But the King's desire for a "slimmed-down" monarchy with fewer working members means such visits may be shorter and less frequent.
Under Canada's constitutional setup, he said, the sovereign acts under the advice of an elected representative, meaning he can't visit Canada or take a significant action — such as issuing an apology to Indigenous people for their treatment under the Crown — without the approval of the PMO.
