Does Canada still need the monarchy?

A whirlwind trip for King Charles, in his first visit to Canada as a sitting monarch, is being viewed by some as a success.

Host Kris McCusker speaks to Carolyn Harris - Historian, Author and Royal Commentator - about how it compares with other royal visits - and why the timing is so relevant.
