OTTAWA — King Charles and Queen Camilla started the second day of their Canadian visit this morning by travelling in Canada’s state landau past crowds of admirers in front of Parliament Hill.

The King wore a dark striped suit with the Order of Canada around his neck. Next to him, the Queen was wearing a navy blue dress and hat.

They were joined by Gov. Gen. Mary Simon and her husband Whit Fraser.

The landau was escorted down Wellington Street in Ottawa by mounted RCMP officers.

The King and Queen arrived shortly after 10 a.m. at the Senate building, where the King will deliver the speech from the throne this morning.

The King received full military honours at the Senate, including an inspection of the guard and band and a 21-gun salute.
