Prime Minister Stephen Harper today marked the end of Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's Tour of Canada.
"Canadians from across the country were eager to welcome Their Royal Highnesses on their first official Royal Tour. Throughout the Tour, Canadians expressed their profound attachment to the Crown of Canada and provided The Duke and Duchess with the special hospitality and warmth reserved for members of our Royal Family," said Prime Minister Harper. "The Royal Tour allowed the newlyweds to see the beauty and rich diversity of our great country, and has been a tremendous success."
In addition to Alberta, Their Royal Highnesses's Tour of Canada encompassed the National Capital Region, Quebec, Prince Edward Island and the Northwest Territories.
"It has been a privilege for Canada to host The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge who return home knowing the affection that Canadians from all regions of the country have for them and for all members of our Royal Family. This is the beginning of a beautiful and lasting friendship – one of deep affection and loyalty – and we look forward to sharing more of our splendid country with them on their next Royal Tour."
