Prince Harry and Meghan Markle received good news after their tour of Colombia.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex won the hearts of Canadians, leaving Prince William and Kate Middleton behind.
Garry Toffoli, chief executive of the Canadian Royal Heritage Trust and a staunch monarchist, said former serving royals “have maintained a closer connection to Canada than the Prince and Princess of Wales.”
In conversation with The expressHe shared, “Canadians remember that the problems with the Sussexes began when the Palace (mistakenly, I believe) prevented them from living in Canada with royal security and performing part-time royal duties.”
For the uninitiated, Harry and Meghan stepped down from their senior royal roles in 2020. The couple first resided in Canada for a brief period of time before setting up camp in California.
Garry recalled an old competition and revealed that Harry was more popular with the public than William.
“The overwhelming majority of Canadians supported the Sussexes' plans at the time. In a poll conducted in early 2020, more than 60 per cent wanted Prince Harry to become Canada's next governor general,” the author said.
