Royal patronages and military designations do not automatically transfer when members of the Royal Family step into new roles. New or renewed requests for The King or other members of the Royal Family to become a patron of a Canadian organization should be submitted to the Office of the Secretary of the Governor General, which will forward positive recommendations to Buckingham Palace for consideration.
