Queen Elizabeth II last visited in Canada in 2010, celebrating Canada Day on Parliament Hill. This royal tour began a revival of popular interest in the Canadian monarchy that has continued to the present day. Since the Queen has reduced her overseas travel in recent years, there has been speculation that there will not be any further tours of Canada. As I discussed in an interview with Ruth Dunley, Prince Philip made an unexpected visit to Canada last year and its certainly possible that the Queen may do the same in the future.
