This Week in Monarchy: June 1-7th

6/7/2014

 

June 1st

Starting off the week we have the Young Monarchists who are putting together a series of short films about why Canadians feel loyal to the Maple Crown as well as detailing their own activities. The Monarchist League of Canada is holding a silent auction to help out with this summer project.

June 2nd

Their Excellencies the Right Honourable David Johnston, Governor General of Canada, and Mrs. Sharon Johnston volunteered their time at The Ottawa Mission as part of the TELUS Day of Giving. Their Excellencies served food and refreshments during the community barbecue. This is part of the Governor General's 'My Giving Moment' campaign that encourages Canadians to give back to their communities.

June 3rd

Tom Sutton-Smith, a former Winnipegger, found out on Tuesday that a painting he had done of the Duchess of Cambridge had been presented to William and Kate the previous week. The royal couple were apparently delighted by the painting and intend to display it in their home. The painting was apparently done on a whim after outcry over the Duchess' official portrait making her look too old.

The Honourable Philip S. Lee, Lieutenant Governor of Manitoba hosted a Reception in honour of the volunteers of Beyond Borders at Government House.

The Honourable Judith Guichon, Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia announced the winners of the inaugural 'Sing Me a Song' program. Link

Back to the Governor General who hosted a reception in honour of Canada's 2014 Olympic and Paralympic teams. The text of His Excellency's speech can be found here.

June 5th

HRH The Duke of York was at Fort York National Historic Site in Ontario. The Duke is Colonel-in-Chief of The Queen's York Rangers and presented them with new battle honours. This is not the only connection to Ontario the Duke has as he also spend six months studying at Lakefield College School.

The Honourable David C. Onley was also in attendence. Since 2011 the incumbent Lieutenant Governor of Ontario has served as a Colonel of the Regiment of The Queen’s York Rangers.  

Returning to The Honourable Philip S. Lee who Hosted a Reception to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Kidney Foundation of Canada - Manitoba Branch at Government House.

Also on the 5th Lt.-Gov. Graydon Nicholas of New Brunswick issued a statement in wake of the tragic shootings in Moncton:
"I ask New Brunswickers to come together in light of this tragedy. The RCMP deserves our encouragement and our thanks. The victims, their families and the entire community need the support and sympathy of our province, as we all try better to understand how this could happen here at home.

Hug your family a little tighter today.

Now is the time to come together in prayerful solidarity. These tragic events are a time for all of us to reflect on mental illness, and the warning signs of those in need.

We can all help those who feel there is no way out. We can talk, listen, pray, console and try to better understand. But it takes just one person to see the warning signs.

Now, as we try to comprehend how this could happen, I ask for calm, for reflection, and for prayer. Prayer can be a great healer. And now, those affected need our support, our condolences and our prayers.
"

June 6th

The Governor General Marked the 70th Anniversary of D-Day and the Battle of Normandy at the Canada Aviation and Space Museum. On behalf of the people of Canada, Their Excellencies laid a wreath in memory of the more than 5000 Canadians who sacrificed their lives in the name of freedom.

The Queen of Canada, The Prince of Wales, and other members of the Royal Family were in northern France to commemorate the D-Day landings. Prince Charles spoke at the Juno Beach Centre. Link

Loyally Yours,
A Kisaragi Colour
