A speech by The Duke of Cambridge in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada
Published
It's great to be here North of 60.
Thank you, Premier. Merci, Monsieur le premier ministre.
It's great to be here North of 60. This place is what Canada is all about: vast open beauty, tough, resilient, friendly, peoples - true nature, true humanity. Thank you, Chiefs, for this heartfelt welcome - and thanks to all of you who have travelled such great distances to join us today. Catherine and I are deeply honoured.
We have been here just 12 hours, but we have already sensed the extraordinary potential and the irrepressible spirit of adventure that marks out the peoples of the Territories and defines this land. We are so excited to be here.
Mahsi cho. Quyanaq. Merci a tous. Thank you very much.
