Checking the claim that Wellington visited Canada

A claim that the Duke of Wellington visited Canada can be checked against the sequence of his post-Waterloo military, political, and diplomatic duties. No obvious period appears in which the voyage would fit, so the story remains doubtful, although the possibility is not ruled out. Canadian places bearing Wellington's name establish an association with his reputation, but they do not prove that he visited. A proposed visit has to fit the time needed to cross the Atlantic alongside those documented commitments.
