Buckingham Palace<\/a> always keeps us on our toes.<\/p>\n

The royal palace often shares surprise photos of the family<\/a> on their official Instagram, but their latest post is one we didn\u2019t see coming\u2014a picture of King Charles\u2019s brother, The Duke of Edinburgh<\/a>, who has been in Canada to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the PEI Regiment. Serving as the official Colonel-in-Chief, the Duke looked spiffy in a grey checkered suit as he met with members of Canada\u2019s military and policemen, pet horses and enjoyed a boat ride that offered stunning views of the city.<\/p>\n

The event-filled action didn\u2019t stop there, as, according to the palace, the Duke joined a Freedom of the City parade in Charlottetown, met with the Abegweit First Nation and took part in an education forum for his International Award, which he established as an organization to challenge young people to find their purpose, passion and place in the world. And that was just for Prince Edward Island!<\/p>\n

The Duke of Edinburgh also made a stop in Toronto, where he celebrated Canada\u2019s military and police services with visits to the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment, HMCS York, CFB Trenton, and the Toronto Police Marine Unit and Emergency Task Force, and concluded his trip in Ottawa, which saw him joining the Canada Day celebrations, and, as Honorary Deputy Commissioner of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, visiting the Musical Ride stables.<\/p>\n

The Duke\u2019s charitable initiatives certainly didn\u2019t go unnoticed, with one commenter writing, “The Duke of Edinburgh does brilliant work for the family. HRH is a dutiful and kind man, and it\u2019s always amazing to see more of what he\u2019s been doing,” and another adding, “Dutiful humble Duke who has been rewarded in titles and our respect for his years of service.”<\/p>\n

This visit to Canada follows the royal\u2019s formal induction into the Royal Society of Edinburgh, which is also described as an Honorary Fellow of “Scotland\u2019s National Academy.”<\/p>\n

The Duke was inducted by the Royal Society of Edinburgh (RSE) president, Professor Sir Anton Muscatelli, and said in his address to the RSE Fellows and members of the Young Academy of Scotland, “I am proud to join and recognize this institution\u2019s rich history and its unwavering commitment to the advancement of knowledge for good, and it has been wonderful to learn about the breadth of this work today.”<\/p>\n

A great week for The Duke of Edinburgh.<\/p>\n
