Canada says it will end its security assistance for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex when they step back from royal duties.after they walk away from most royal duties, which they plan to do from April.
Mary-Liz Power, a spokeswoman for Canada's public safety minister, said:"The assistance will cease in the coming weeks, in keeping with their change in status." The couple said they will give up public funding and become financially independent as they live in Canada.Royal Canadian Police had been working as security for the couple since November.Ms Power said that as Duke and Duchess of Sussex, they had been considered"internationally protected persons" who warranted security measures under international treaty.
The Canadians aren’t that stupid to pay for it, we fall for the three card trick in this country
Yes, actions have consequences & Harry & Meghan are so up themselves that their self arranged exit from the RF will now see them struggle to keep any relevance.
Pay it yourselves
She manipulated this situation from day one, they want security they should pay for it.
Oh dear, how sad , never mind. Actions have consequences. They chose to leave, they weren’t pushed. You shouldn’t blame people for their mistakes, but you should expect the to pay for them. They mistakenly thought they could have their cake and eat it. Doh!
They must pay for their own security 🤷♀️
Why is this making you cheery? Most if not all of the media in this country.
I don’t think they care to be honest
Quite right. They've made a decision to step out of public service. They're a wealthy couple, they should fund it themselves.
Who the hell is going to keep the public safe from those two now
Never expect anything from Canadian or United States 😤
well they won't be royal anymore so just mr and mrs joe blogs
Tell em to pissoff
Love can be blind they said...
I don't think they thought this through properly. Sorry - Meghan didn't. Harry just went along with it.
NoraVerystrong u were right. Unbelievable
Should Harry and Megan pay their own security bill, when they no longer work for the tax payer.
And why should they and why should we they decided they wanted to leave they can decide how they’re gonna pay for it
Does bloody right cant expect Canadian taxpayer or ours for that matter to pay for their security they wish to walk away and become independent then they pay their own way for everything including security
They will be fine, they will sort themselves out
While on royal duties in a foreign country at least the foreign Govt has viable reason to argue spending public dimes on their security. Now that they've absconded royal duty & not Canada citizens the public would be fuming if their dimes are spent on the pair of freeloaders.
State of these replies. More gullible fools being drawn in by the press. Tragic state of affairs...
They don't deserve any security from Canadian govt, when they didn't value Royal security given them for lifelong. Anyways, we are not very interested in this pair any more.
If they can’t affor it themselves they aren’t financially independent they are a joke!
They won’t be royalty if they are going to make 1 billion dollars they can affor their own security. Leaches!
Put your hand in your pocket Harry
It’s the snowflake and the gold digger!
UK is paying for 15 protection officers to be there at a cost of £15 million so nothings changed.
I wonder what the fallout would be if they were murdered by some nutter. A Caroline flack style self indulgent I was there for you man, “all you needed was to call out to me, I had your back. It’s so tragic 😥😥”
Its not Canada's responsibility.
That's not what was reported... Only mounted police will cease.
Harry can handle himself
It's not up to the Canadian or British taxpayer come the spring they're Millionaire's why is it even up for debate they can pay for it themselves
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!
That’s a shame I was as a normal person about to ask for personal security.
I should hope not why should Canada pay anything.
They should have just moved to Ireland we welcome gingers with open arms and as an American she’s bound to have an Irish granny or whatever. Plus absolutely nobody would bother them out of pure begrudgery. We’d have them voting sinnfeinireland in no time idk 🤷♀️
Well they did say they wanted to be financially independent so surely they'll be paying for it themselves anyway
Rightfully so! Not royal! Taxpayers in 🇨🇦 WILL NOT be saddled with security costs for them! 👏👏👏👏👏👏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Look at what you could have won. Be safe young prince, don't let your love be the end of a good family life.
They can pay for themselves from the money they will make
Here's the thing: Harry is 6th in line to the throne of England; his son is 7th If you seriously imagine that they're not going to be protected at SOME state's expense, be it the UK's or Canada's, however it gets written up or written off, then I think you're delusional
It isn't the Canadian duty to provide security for Harry and Meghan just because they decided to live there Harry and Meghan better get their 💰 money out and start paying their own way for a change nothing in this world is free.
I’d like to think they weren’t even asked? And what would Canadian officials provide them? A couple of Mounties on a moose
BorisJohnson If Harry & Megan don’t work for the Monarchy and CHOOSE to work & live in another country then there is no way WE the tax payer should be paying any security bill for these millionaires, we don’t pay for Princess Eugine & Beatrices security.
