This first visit would be followed by 22 official visits by Queen Elizabeth II, making Canada the country most frequently visited by Her Majesty. They have placed in our hearts a love for their country and its people which will never grow cold and which will always draw us to their shores. I am sure that nowhere under the sun could one find a land more full of hope, of happiness and of fine, loyal, generous-hearted people. Their coast-to-coast visit was the start of a long, affectionate relationship between Canadians and Her Majesty, who remarked: Viewed as the couple that would bring a more youthful approach to the monarchy, they immediately piqued the interest of Canadians.
Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip visited Canada for the first time in 1951, as part of a 5-week cross-country tour.
