List of Canadian provincial and territorial orders[edit]

This list is mainly a condensed version of what each province awards and some of the key elements of the awards, such as the medal, ribbon bar and post-nominal letters. I also tried to include the number of people who received each honor, but some provinces do not keep a count of people with a certain honor. All of the photos of the medals are {{CanadaCopyright}} from the Canadian Forces website and the ribbon bars were drawn by me and released into the public domain.

  • Comments - Pretty, but there are no references (other than the external links in the table). Some apppropriate categories should also be added. Are there any other systems of Commonwealth honours that should be linked? (For example, do the Australian states award their own honours?) -- ALoan (Talk) 19:42, 16 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yeah, I need to add the categories, but I do not think it would be needed to add the Commonwealth honors, since Canadian provincial awards are a part of the Canadian honours system. I also need to add the order of presedence Canadian Forces instituted, but I ordered the table in ABC order.

      • Support - thanks for the response. I have also tweaked a little. -- ALoan (Talk) 13:39, 17 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, I like it. Phoenix2 01:30, August 17, 2005 (UTC)
  • Support. Nice work -- Ian ≡ talk 03:02, 17 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment the title needs to appear bolded in the lead. --Sophitus 04:32, August 17, 2005 (UTC)
  • Support on the condition that the spelling errors are cleaned up.Oppose for now -- not familiar with the terms, I had to do a lot of clicking around to come to the conclusion that the awards are civilian decorations[?]. I would like to see some mention of what the awards are for: eg. "civilian medals awarded for excellent services" . =Nichalp «Talk»= 19:49, August 17, 2005 (UTC) =Nichalp «Talk»= 18:34, August 18, 2005 (UTC)
    • The provincial orders can also be presented to those who are non-Canadians (but residents of the province) and also can be presented to CF personell. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 19:53, 17 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • Let me know once you've added the above info. I'll support then. =Nichalp «Talk»= 20:30, August 17, 2005 (UTC)
        • I added it a few minutes before you posted your above message. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 20:43, 17 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
          • It doesn't read clearly. " a separate order to their residents regardless of nationality and personel of the Canadian Forces". 1) I would still prefer it to be mentioned somewhere that it is a civilian award given for excellent services rendered.... something on those lines 2) How long would a person have to reside there before it was awarded? If he was a Greek citizen, and he did something heroic on the first day he moved to the state, would he qualify?
            • Each province has their own rules, which are explained on their separate articles. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 18:12, 18 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
          • Comment I think the list should cross-reference with List of Canadian awards. Circeus 05:34, August 18, 2005 (UTC)
    • I've copyedited, but feel free to correct any other spelling mistakes. List of Canadian awards is now linked. -- ALoan (Talk) 12:08, 19 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
