Canadians appear to be unmoved by the new monarch\u0027s efforts — if they\u0027ve noticed them at all
“There was a removed sense , where with Charles we’re not seeing that,” Tidridge said in a phone interview from Waterdown, Ont. “He’s more engaged in different spheres, especially the spheres he’s identified as really important to him.”
Canadians, however, appear to be unmoved by the new monarch’s efforts — if they’ve noticed them at all. Harris says Canadians remained attached to the queen until her death on Sept. 8, 2022, seeing her as a figure of stability. Charles, on the other hand, has previously courted controversy with the tumultuous public breakup with his first wife, Diana, the Princess of Wales. More recently there have been tensions with his youngest son, Prince Harry, who recently exposed the family’s dirty laundry in a tell-all book.
“His footprint in Canada, his presence in Canada — the gatekeeper to the presence is actually the Prime Minister’s Office,” he said. While the reasons for this are unclear, Tidridge believes it might reflect a desire to avoid the thorny conversations happening about the role the Crown has played in colonialism and imperialism.
