Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 05 Jul, 2016 01:14 PM

OTTAWA — Canadians who could not get enough of William and Catherine, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the last time they were here might get another chance to see them soon.

And this time, their young children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, are welcome to join them.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has sent an official invitation to the royal couple and their family to visit Canada whenever their schedules permit.

A spokeswoman says the dates are not yet confirmed.

William, the eldest son of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana, and his wife Kate Middleton, last visited Canada on their first official tour as newlyweds in 2011.

They visited four provinces and the Northwest Territories, and made a stop in Ottawa to celebrate Canada Day on Parliament Hill.
