She has stated that she feels “deep regret” for skipping a Canadian ceremony honouring war heroes.Due to her recuperation at home, Anne had to cancel nine events last week, including a trip to Canada. She was scheduled to speak at a centenary celebration of the Newfoundland National War Memorial in Canada. It also commemorates the return of the remains of an unidentified Newfoundland soldier from First World War battlegrounds in northern France.
The Governor General read aloud a message from the princess because Anne was unable to attend the event, as reported by The Mirror. The message said, “I am deeply sorry that I am not able to be with you today as you honour the courageous actions and sacrifices made by the Newfoundland Regiment members who went into battle on the first day of the Somme.” “I am heartbroken that I will not be able to join you again on this special day of commemoration, but I have pleasant memories of joining you in 2016 on the 99th occasion that the people of this Island celebrated the Battle of Beaumont Hamel.”
