Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, will open the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in Toronto today.

The royal couple will then tour the exhibition, billed as the world's largest indoor agricultural show and international equestrian competition.

Prince Charles will then visit the Evergreen Brick Works, a project seeking to bring nature to Canada's cities, and talk with entrepreneurs before attending a farmer's market and reception hosted by the federal government.

The couple will then head to the airport and bid farewell to Ontario as they depart for Victoria, kicking off the next leg of their 11-day tour.

The royals spent some of their time in Ontario meeting business leaders and musicians, as well as touring Dundurn Castle in Hamilton, home to one of Camilla's ancestors.

The couple has already visited Newfoundland and Labrador, and is also making stops in British Columbia and Montreal before ending their tour Nov. 12 in Ottawa.
