Charles's coronation on Saturday drew fans from all over the world to London, including thousands who camped overnight along a two kilometre route travelled by the procession.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said King Charles is deeply aligned with the fundamental priorities of Canadians on reconciliation and the environment.
Trudeau made the comments while speaking with reporters in London, a day after he attended the King’s coronation at Westminster Abbey.
Trudeau said he has known Charles for decades as an environmentalist and someone committed to preserving nature.
He said the King has also shown that he understands the problems created by Britain’s colonial history in Canada.
“The work that he has done in reaching out to Indigenous leaders of the past number of years, including again this week, I think shows that he is deeply aligned with some of the really fundamental priorities of Canadians,” Trudeau said.
