On Monday, he met the outgoing Canadian prime minister, Justin Trudeau, who has repeatedly clashed with the US president, at his private estate in Norfolk estate.
Trump has been mocking Trudeau for months, threatening to annex Canada, of which Charles is head of state, as the 51st state and referring to the prime minister as ‘Governor Trudeau.’
After meeting with Charles, Trudeau posted on X confirming that the pair had discussed the issue saying: ‘We spoke about matters of importance to Canadians — including, above all, Canada’s sovereign and independent future.’
A source close to the King told the Times: ‘It is business as usual, but with everything on a heightened level of significance. Canada is particularly on his mind. Of course, he knows he has to be mindful of being the UK head of state and the head of state in Canada, as well as being the head of the Commonwealth. It does require delicate diplomacy, given that not everyone’s interests are aligned.’
The US imposed 25 percent tariffs on all goods imported from Mexico and Canada rocketing the country into a trade war on Tuesday.
But just days later, Trump reversed his economic slap down saying that goods that are compliant with the North American free trade agreement with not be tariffed until April 2 and are apparently considering a similar carve out for Canada.
During the Commonwealth Day service, The King will tell the gathering at Westminster Abbey: ‘In these uncertain times, where it is all too easy to believe that our differences are problems instead of a source of strength and an opportunity for learning, the Commonwealth’s remarkable collection of nations and peoples come together in the spirit of support and, crucially, friendship.’
Charles will also say: ‘The Commonwealth’s ability to bring together people from all over the world has stood the test of time and remains as ever-important today.’
Trudeau is set to officially transition to a new leader once his Liberal Party holds leadership elections on Sunday. That new leader will soon face a national election shortly after.
He is trying to have some semblance of a victory lap after being forced to resign when it appeared he could not win the next election.
At a press conference in Ottawa discussing childhood health care, he clearly
On a personal level, I made sure that every single day in this office, I put Canadians first and I have peoples’ backs and that’s why I’m here to tell you all that we got you, even in the last days of this government, we will not let Canadians down today and well into the future,’ he said as he’d clearly started to cry.
He added that he is to looking forward to ‘a transition to my duly elected successor in the coming days or week.’
Meanwhile, Trump continues to mock Trudeau and had his doubts that the prime minister was stepping down for good.
‘Believe it or not, despite the terrible job he’s done for Canada, I think that Justin Trudeau is using the Tariff problem, which he has largely caused, in order to run again for Prime Minister. So much fun to watch!’

The next Canadian election will be held no later than October 20, 2025.
This year’s Commonwealth Day theme is Together We Thrive, which celebrates the ‘enduring spirit of the Commonwealth family’.
The King, who is head of the Commonwealth, gives an annual address each year to the family of 56 nations, but last year pre-recorded a video message, after postponing his public-facing duties for about three months after being diagnosed with cancer.
The Princess of Wales also missed the service last year, a key event in the royal calendar, after also being diagnosed with cancer, but will be among the congregation alongside the King, Queen and Prince of Wales.
Jeanine Pirro stunned fans with a bold declaration: not only did she call The Charlie Kirk Show “one of the most powerful and inspiring programs on television,” but she also confirmed she will join Erika Kirk and Megyn Kelly on the next broadcast. Her announcement immediately added fuel to the fire, signaling that the show’s momentum was only just beginning. Stunned silence turned into frantic whispers at ABC headquarters when the numbers came in: The Charlie Kirk Show had done the unthinkable, pulling in over 1 billion views in just days. Executives, who expected a bold debut but nothing earth-shattering, suddenly found themselves staring at statistics so massive that some questioned whether they were even real. Behind the closed doors of the network’s glass towers, panic reportedly spread—because with numbers this big comes a dangerous question: who actually controls the future of television now? Was it Erika Kirk, Megyn Kelly, and now Jeanine Pirro rewriting history, or a cultural wave too powerful for ABC to manage? Viewers around the world are asking if this show is just entertainment—or the start of something far bigger. Full details below 👇👇👇
