Kensington Baron Allen replaces Prince Harry as Invictus Chairman following Canadian petitions

Thousands of Canadians have voiced their concerns through numerous petitions on Change.org, demanding the removal of and Meghan from the board of directors of the Invictus Games.

These petitions have prompted swift action, resulting in significant changes to the organization's leadership.

Upon visiting the Invictus homepage and Wikipedia, it is evident that 's name has been completely replaced by a new chairman.

The newly appointed chairman of Invictus is Charles Allen, also known as Baron Allen of Kensington.

A distinguished British businessman and broadcaster, Baron Allen previously chaired the 2002 Commonwealth Games.

He has an extensive background in sports management, having served as a member of the London 2012 Olympic bid team and as a director of the London Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games.

Additionally, he held the position of mayor of the Olympic Village.

Before this change, Prince Harry was listed as the president on the organization's website.

However, it is important to note that the role of president is often a courtesy title bestowed upon individuals as an honorary gesture, rather than for their active involvement in the organization.

The chairman, on the other hand, holds a more hands-on role in the day-to-day operations.

Prince Harry was previously regarded as a worthy patron of the Invictus Games.

However, recent events have raised questions about his true intentions.

Some argue that his focus shifted from supporting veteran competitors to personal financial gain.

It is concerning that he sought to monetize the experiences of disabled veterans.

Profiting off the struggles of those who have sacrificed so much is unacceptable.

In a related development, it was recently announced that Vancouver would host the Invictus Games in 2025.

This decision was made by the Canadian federal government after Prince Harry revealed the news during the closing ceremony.

However, there are concerns about the motivations behind this choice.

Many question whether Prince Harry and Meghan genuinely care about indigenous people, their rights, and the historical injustices they have faced.

Critics argue that the couple is exploiting these issues for personal gain.

Furthermore, it is worth noting that Prince Harry and Meghan never expressed gratitude to the Canadian taxpayers who funded their security during their previous stay in Canada.

Therefore, many believe that they do not deserve further financial support from hard-working taxpayers.

Exploiting the pain caused by recent findings of unmarked graves is seen as another example of their opportunistic behavior.

The couple has already used veterans for their Netflix documentary, and Canadians should be wary of them attempting to do the same with the indigenous community.

It is evident that 's presence has also garnered criticism.

Her detractors accuse her of making everything about herself, as witnessed during the 2022-2023 Invictus Games.

They highlight her inappropriate clothing choices, describing them as wrinkled and resembling a bundle of rags.

Reports even suggest that she emitted an unpleasant odor, which was off-putting for those around her.
