King Charles III was crowned in a sumptuous, seamless ceremony on Saturday at Westminster Abbey. A fusion of medieval and modern. Queen Camilla was crowned too – in the same Abbey where coronations have taken place since 1066.

Canada’s prime minister was there too while astronaut Jeremy Hansen led the Canadian procession. Dawna Friesen has more.
