The Queen's message to the Governor General of Canada following the wild fires in Fort McMurray

I mourn with all Canadians at this tragic time.

I join with all Canadians on this first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

Nous avons le devoir de nous souvenir et d’honorer Ia mémoire de ceux qui ont servi vaillamment et qui ont tant donné ici, sur la crete de Vimy, et tout au long de la Premiere...

It is our duty to remember and honour those who served so valiantly and who gave so much here at Vimy Ridge and throughout the First World War.

I am delighted to offer all Canadians my best wishes and congratulations on the 150th anniversary of Confederation

C’est un plaisir pour moi de transmettre mes meilleurs voeux et mes félicitations aux Canadiens et Canadiennes à l’occasion du 150e anniversaire de la Confédération

Canadians have, by their own endeavours, built a country and society which is widely-admired across the world.

The baton relay represents a calling together of people from every part of the Commonwealth.

Aujourd’hui, bien des années plus tard, j’éprouve toujours autant d’affection et d’admiration pour le Canada.

I hope that today will be a special and memorable time for each and every one of you.

I have watched with enormous admiration how Canada has grown and matured while remaining true to its history.

Among the millions who lost their lives in the Great War were many Canadians who came to Europe to fight for peace.

The Canadian Corps transformed Vimy Ridge from a symbol of despair into a source of inspiration.

While all Albertans — and all Canadians — value this history as a colourful account of the past, we also view it as a foundation for our present and future.

I have so many vivid memories and a tremendous sense of pride in being part of the Canadian family.

I retain a deep affection for this great country and for the people who take such pride in saying "I am Canadian".

My mother once said that this country felt like a "home away from home" for the Queen of Canada. Ladies and gentlemen, six decades later it still does...

Bearing the cipher of Queen Victoria as well as my own, this stone is presented to the First Nations University of Canada.

The sixtieth anniversary of the Normandy Landings is a moment for thanksgiving, and a moment of commemoration.

Wherever the future may take us, my admiration and affection for Canada and Canadians everywhere is - and will always remain - clear, strong and sure.

I am happy to be in Hamilton today in order to present new Colours and to visit my Canadian Argylls.

Je chéris ma place dans la vie du Canada et mon lien avec tous les Canadiens et Canadiennes.

I am proud to be the first member of the Canadian Royal Family to be greeted in Canada's newest territory.
