Kate Middleton, Prince William and their kids land in Canada for royal tour (see photos)

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge arrived in Canada yesterday with their children, George and Charlotte for a royal tour.

They landed in Victoria shortly before 4pm local time after travelling on a Canadian Air Force plane.

The family was greeted by the Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his equally fashion forward wife Sophie.

Everyone was particularly keen to see Charlotte because, remarkably, she has only appeared in public twice since her birth, in the pram at her christening and on the balcony this year at Trooping The Colour.
