MONTREAL — Some have suggested they could become king and queen of Canada.

Tim Hortons, the quintessentially Canadian coffee chain, offered them “free coffee for life.”

Others recommended Ottawa, the nation’s sleepy capital, as a possible home, noting that, if they squinted hard enough, they could pretend the Parliament buildings were palaces.

Prince Harry and his wife, the former Meghan Markle, also known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, electrified the world this week with their announcement that they planned to step back from official royal duties and live part-time in North America.
