July 6

The couple chose to visit Slave Lake, the fire-ravaged town in Alberta, instead of taking a personal day. This impromptu stop surely helped provide additional attention to this struggling town, uplifting the spirits of the people while providing some support.

Kate dressed accordingly wearing a casual outfit: dark skinny jeans, blue wedges, and yes, a Smythe jacket buy Canadians Andrea Lenczner and Christie Smythe.
