Governor General makes first trip to Calgary

Two months after being sworn in as Canada’s 28th Governor General, David Johnston has made a trip to Calgary.

The Vice-Regal made a couple of stops around the city, including one to the Veteran’s Food Bank and city hall to meet Mayor Naheed Nenshi.

He was also “White Hatted” during his trip to city hall.

At the food bank, Johnston thanked a number of people for their continued service to the food bank, including Cpl. Ryan Preston, just back from a tour of duty in Afghanistan.

“It’s one thing to talk the talk, but he’s actually walking the walk. It’s nice to see him out and showing his support,” Preston says.

Johnston made it clear during his investure speech, meeting with military personnel from across the country was a top priority for him.
