In a symbolic speech in Canada, King Charles addressed the defense of democracy, open trade, and national sovereignty—without naming the figure who challenged it most: Donald Trump. While avoiding direct confrontation, Charles’ remarks subtly responded to Trump-era tariffs, border pressures, and fentanyl accusations. Referencing Canada’s commitment to freedom and rule of law, the King became a royal voice of quiet resistance. The address followed Mark Carney’s election amid rising anti-Trump sentiment, strengthening the message that Canada stands firm—even when the U.S. looms large.
