A spokesman for Kensington Palace said:
"The Duke and Duchess are delighted to be returning to Canada. They hold very happy memories from their visit in 2011 - their first overseas tour as a married couple. They are really looking forward to seeing other parts of this beautiful country and having the opportunity to meet many more Canadians along the way."
This will be the Duke and Duchess's second joint visit to Canada. Their first Royal Tour was between 30 June and 8 July 2011 when they visited Canada’s Capital Region, Montréal, Québec City, Charlottetown, Summerside, Yellowknife, Slave Lake and Calgary.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge headed to Portsmouth today to cheer on Sir Ben Ainslie and his crew BAR (Ben Ainslie Racing) as they competed in the America's Cup World Series.
The royal couple showed their support by wearing matching BAR polo tops, complete with their titles on the back.
The Land Rover BAR Replica Pique Polo is available from Henri Lloyd:
Kate paired the top with black skinny jeans which are currently unidentified. On her feet were the Monsoon 'Fleur' taupe suede espadrille wedges.
Kate added a touch of understated glamor with her KIKI Lauren Yellow Gold Diamond Pave Leaf Earrings.
Prior to the race, the Duke and Duchess toured the BAR team base to see their state of the art facilities and meet team members and support staff.
In her role as royal patron of the 1851 Trust, the Duchess of Cambridge also meet children participating in the Trust program.
The Duke and Duchess took to the seas to watch the race from a great vantage point.
Before boarding the boat, Kate changed out of her wedges and put on her Adidas Pure Boost X sneakers.
Kate also wore her Ray-Ban Folding Wayfarer sunglasses.
The BAR team were victorious and the Duke and Duchess concluded their visit in Portsmouth with the medal presentation.

The Duchess of Cambridge returned to the Royal Box at the All England Club having attended the women's semi-finals a few days earlier. Today she was joined by her husband Prince William to watch their compatriot Andy Murray take on the Canadian, Milos Raonic in the men's Wimbledon final.
Kate debuted a print dress by her go-to designer, Alexander McQueen. (ID by @MiddletonMaven and @PerthsFashion). The custom dress is based on the silhouette from McQueen’s AW16 collection in which creative director Sarah Burton explores the notion of the obsessive collector. 
The ready-to-wear silk dress (US$2,995) is expertly tailored in Italy and is decorated with the 'Obsession' print – a whimsical assortment of trinkets, charms, butterflies and the signature McQueen skull.
The 'Obsession' print features heavily in this season's collection and is available in white, and black. You'll find it on blouses, scarfs, bags, and a range of dress silhouettes.
During the game Kate wore her trusty Ray Ban wayfarer folding sunglasses.
Unfortunately there are no high-resoultion full length photos of Kate so it's difficult to say which pair of shoes she wore with the outfit.
Judging from these limited photos, I think she may be wearing her Ginavito Rossi Praline suede 'Gianvito 105' pumps.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford
in Gloucestershire today, and they brought along a very special guest!
Prince George joined his parents at this family-orientated event, and prior to their visit Kensington Palace said: "The Duke and Duchess know that George will enjoy seeing the aircraft up close".
The Air Tattoo is the the world's largest military airshow and is held annually in support of the RAF Charitable Trust. The Duchess was present in her role as patron of the Air Cadets. This year the airshow will stage official celebrations marking the Air Cadets' 75th anniversary. Both she and the Duke met some of the Air Cadets during their visit.
For today's outing, the Duchess donned a familiar combination of her ultra-blue Stella McCartney 'Ridley' dress and navy Smythe single button blazer.
Kate has worn the pieces separately on many occasions and today was the third time she had paired this combination:
It was extremely windy at the airfield today so Kate popped on a leopard printed Alice band to keep her hair from whipping around her face. You may recall we first spotted Kate wearing the mystery headband at the Houghton International Horse trials in May.
On her feet were the modestly heeled LK Bennett 'Floret' nude leather pumps.
Kate's jewelry included her KIKI Lauren Yellow Gold Diamond Pave Leaf Earrings and Carteir watch.
There are so many delightful photos of the young royal family enjoying their time at the airshow. It's beyond the scope of this blog to cover all the details so I encourage you to check at more photos at Getty Images.

The Duchess of Cambridge, a keen tennis fan visited the All England Club today to watch the Wimbledon semi finals clash on Centre Court between Serena Williams and Elena Vesnina.
Kate was joined in the Royal Box by Sophie, Countess of Wessex.
Prior to the match, the Duchess was greeted by the chairman of the All England Club, Philip Brook, at the players' entrance, before being introduced to staff and officials on the players' lawn.
Kate was easy to spot among the crowd in her sunshine yellow Roksanda 'Ryedale' dress. She first wore the colour-block dress for her official arrival into Australia during the 2014 royal tour.
Up until 2014, Kate traditionally wore white to Wimbledon, but over the past couple of years she has ditched the "tennis whites" in favour of bold patterns and colour.
Today we got a better look at the earrings Kate debuted at Art Fund dinner last night
@TheRoyalsAndI did an extensive search and found they are the Baroque Pearl Double Sided Earrings by Soru Jewellery (£130). The earrings are hand crafted with iridescent baroque pearls edged with multi faceted Swarovski crystals.
It was refreshing to see Kate carrying a full sized handbag today rather than one of her signature clutches.
The piece in a new addition to her closet and was identified by @PackhamGown as the Victoria Beckham 'Quincy' tote (£995). It's a mini shopper-style tote rendered in moonshine white buffalo-leather with a contrasting calf-leather trim. It has a top looped tab fastening to adjust the shape.
The bag has unfortunately sold out in moonshine white, but it is currently available in black and blue.
The designer describes the 'Quincy' as a miniature version of their 'Liberty' bag which is available in moonshine white and is on sale at Boutique1.com!
The Duchess also decided to premier a new pair of nude leather pumps. I initially thought they were her LK Bennett 'Fern' courts but Rebecca English set me straight:
See you all tomorrow for the Royal International Air Tattoo.
