List of royal tours of Canada (18th–20th centuries)
{{Short description|none}}
There was an extended royal presence in Canada through the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries,{{cite web|url=http://www.pch.gc.ca/pgm/ceem-cced/fr-rf/1786-1951-eng.cfm|last=Department of Canadian Heritage|authorlink=Department of Canadian Heritage|title=Ceremonial and Canadian Symbols Promotion > Canadian Monarchy > Royal visits to Canada > Royal visits from 1786 to 1951|publisher=Queen's Printer for Canada|accessdate=3 October 2009}} either as an official tour, a vacation, a period of military service, or a viceregal posting by a member of the Royal Family. Originally, royal tours of Canada were events predominantly for Canadians to see and possibly meet members of their Royal Family, with the associated patriotic pomp and spectacle. However, nearing the end of the 20th century, such occasions took on the added dimension of a theme, and junior members of the Royal Family began to undertake unofficial "working" tours of Canada as well; in this method, royal figures are invited by provinces, municipalities, and other organizations to events which the latter fund without assistance from the federal government. The Prince of Wales, The Princess Royal, The Duke of York and The Prince Edward, have all made several small tours in this fashion. These arrangements then continued on into the 21st century.
