Does he keep any Canadian honours?

He lost most of those several years ago. In 2019, after a disastrous interview with the BBC about sex abuse allegations, it was reported that Andrew would no longer be honorary chair of Lakefield College School in Ontario, which he briefly attended in 1977.

This was at the same time that the SickKids Foundation in Toronto announced that he would no longer serve as its honorary patron, and the Rideau Hall Foundation said it would not renew its partnership with his charity Pitch@Palace. The Canadian Canoe Museum also stepped away from its relationship with him at that time.
