H.R.H. The Duke of Edinburgh

"It was the Canada in 1951 that the Queen and I made our first major visit to a Commonwealth country. I have been to Canada many times since, but that visit is indelibly etched in my memory. I can only hope that all visitors to Canada from this country and all the visitors to this country from Canada have experienced the same warm hospitality and sense of affinity."
"I am delighted to have been associated with the Canada Club since 1954 and I can testify to the very important part it plays in maintaining contacts and in developing new friendships across the Atlantic."
