Mad Cow disease

Prince Charles in Canada

Prince Sausage Fingers

He may have been greeted by a disinfectant mat at the airport but there was nothing antiseptic about the welcome the Prince of Wales received Wednesday from throngs of Canadian fans. At least 2,000 noisy well-wishers lined the walkabout route Prince Charles took in downtown Ottawa leading to the National War Memorial as he began a five-day royal visit to Canada.

Clasping outstretched hands and smiling broadly, the prince had collected flowers, a box of Girl Guide cookies, a brown teddy bear and a pair of hand-knit grey socks from an adoring public before he even reached his first official event of the tour.

”It is marvellous to be back again,” the 52-year-old prince later told a reception at the Museum of Civilization across the Ottawa River in Hull, Que.

”I look forward to several days here with all of you. I’ve had such a wonderfully warm welcome already. It’s made me feel better after a seven-hour flight, I can assure you.’’ (Canadian Press)

Please note…

This website contains satirical commentaries of current events going back several decades. Some readers may not share this sense of humour nor the opinions expressed by the artist. To understand editorial cartoons it is important to understand their effectiveness as a counterweight to power. It is presumed readers approach satire with a broad minded foundation and healthy knowledge of objective facts of the subjects depicted.
