King Charles is the head of state in Canada, which is a member of the British Commonwealth. He has come under criticism for being silent about Trump’s threats.

Summary

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will meet with King Charles III to discuss Donald Trump’s threats to annex Canada.

The king has faced criticism for remaining silent, prompting calls for him to reaffirm Canadian sovereignty.

Former Alberta Premier Jason Kenney and experts suggest the Canadian government should formally advise Charles to speak out, though the UK may resist.

Trudeau may also discuss the issue with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. The debate raises broader questions about the monarchy’s role in Canada’s political future.

    Daniel Béland, a political science professor at McGill University in Montreal, said many Canadians would want a public statement from the king and they might be mad if that doesn’t happen.

    None of us care about the king. What’s he supposed to do? England has more than enough problems of their own already.

      Rich people love to cosplay with the fake monarchy. I think its because they themselves wish they had the same dictatorial power they had in the past.
