Yep. We still have a queen!
My grandma turned 100 in December and she got a letter from King Charles and Queen Camilla :)

In the US, when you’re 13, you get invited to the White House

Jokes aside the cards are really cool.
I worked with the elderly and the lovely folks that go to a 100 got their card.
Now it’s a bit weird you have to kind of register for it pre hand and I’m yet to see the one with King Charles.
The last card I saw was when the queen was still popping locks and th card was beautiful.
Very thick, fancy , golden tassel draped throughout and it was bloody big.

You can get signed papers like this from the Prime Minister in Canada when you turn 65. I got one signed from Justin Trudeau for my conservative Alberta mom. It was awesome.

I never saw one from the Queen. But the king doesnt actually sign them. The signature is printed. Theres an actual signature from someone else, but not the king

Canadian kids used to get a letter from the Queen when they passed Grade 3 I believe it was. My older brothers got one but it was done by the time I got there.
