Global National: Sept. 9, 2022 | King Charles mourns his mother Queen Elizabeth in 1st speech

A day after the death of Queen Elizabeth II, her son King Charles III has made his first public address. Crystal Goomansingh looks at how his priorities are shifting, and what he had to say about his sons and daughters-in-law.

With so many decades under her reign, many people in the United Kingdom feel personally affected by the Queen's death. Redmond Shannon looks at how they're paying tribute to Her Majesty, what the late monarch means to them and how they're honouring their new sovereign.

Queen Elizabeth's passing also sets in motion a series of meticulously planned protocols and events across Britain and throughout the Commonwealth — including Canada — to honour the monarch. Eric Sorensen breaks down what Operation London Bridge entails.

With King Charles now at the helm of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth, questions are being raised about what this change means. Global National's Dawna Friesen speaks with Canadian historian and Oxford University emeritus professor Margaret MacMillan on what that transition means for the monarchy's future and Canadians.

And during her 22 visits to Canada over the past seven decades, Queen Elizabeth met countless Canadians from all walks of life. From dropping the puck at an NHL game, to her visit of one family's farm, Mike Drolet looks at some of the Queen's many encounters, and how the Canadians she's crossed paths with are remembering her.
