    The Order of Military Merit to Corporal R

    Chapter Three The Order Comes to Life: Appointments, Refinements and Change His Excellency has asked me to write to inform you that, with the approval of The Queen, Sovereign of the Order, he has appointed you a Member. Esmond Butler, Secretary General of the Order of Military Merit to Corporal R. L. Mailloux, I 3 December 1972 nlike the Order of Canada, which underwent a significant structural change five years after being established, the changes made to the Order of Military U Merit since 1972 have been largely administrative. Following the Order of Canada structure and general ethos has served the Order of Military Merit well. Other developments, such as the change in insignia worn on undress ribbons, the adoption of a motto for the Order and the creation of the Order of Military Merit paperweight, are examined in Chapter Four. With the ink on the Letters Patent and Constitution of the Order dry, The Queen and Prime Minister having signed in the appropriate places, and the Great Seal affixed thereunto, the Order had come into being, but not to life. In the beginning, the Order consisted of the Sovereign and two members: the Governor General as Chancellor and a Commander of the Order, and the Chief of the Defence Staff as Principal Commander and a similarly newly minted Commander of the Order. The first act of Governor General Roland Michener as Chancellor of the Order was to appoint his Secretary, Esmond Butler, to serve "as a member of the Advisory Committee of the Order." 127 Butler would continue to play a significant role in the early development of the Order, along with future Chief of the Defence Staff General Jacques A.

    under the most hazardous circumstances..." and, like the other awards in the bravery series, made no distinction between military and civilian personnel or between heroism under combat and non- combat circumstances. The somewhat arguable view that the premier national award for gallantry should recognize differences related to the circumstances of the award - specifically whether or not the act in question involved combat - was advanced with considerable vigor. Indeed, several groups strongly advocated that Canada, like Australia, should recognize the Victoria Cross as the highest Commonwealth gallantry award taking precedence over all other Commonwealth decorations. However, equally vociferous factions supported complete divorce and adherence to a purely "made-in-Canada" system. The latter appear to have prevailed; some means for distinguishing combat and non-combat gallantry awards is said to be under consideration. To resolve these steadily increasing complexities Order-in-Council P.C. 1990-2307 (25 October 1990) cut the Gordian Knot by revoking P.C. 1972-1206, and instituting a new system of precedence. This embodies two highly significant changes. First, the new system is almost completely nationalist in nature. With one exception, British honors are now relegated to a separate category with those of other Commonwealth countries. These are accorded recognition only marginally distinct from that given awards of entirely foreign origin. The acceptanee of all such awards requires approval of the Canadian Government. The single exception involves the Royal Victorian Order. Founded in 1896 by Queen Victoria, it is a Family Order uniquely beyond political influence. Whereas British honors are normally awarded in the name of the Monarch upon recommendation of the Government, the Royal Victorian Order is the personal gift of the Sovereign or members of the Royal Family.

Uniformly dark brown in colour, matte in finish, with a plain crimson ribbon, it pales in comparison to more colourful honours or awards in the British or Canadian Honours Systems. Yet, to reach such a conclusion would be unfortunate. Part of the esteem—even reverence—with which the Victoria Cross is held is due to its simplicity and the idea that a supreme, often fatal, act of gallantry does not require a complicated or flamboyant insignia. A simple, strong and understated design pays greater tribute. More than 1 300 Victoria Crosses have been awarded to the sailors, soldiers and airmen of British Imperial and, later, Commonwealth nations, contributing significantly to the military heritage of these countries. In truth, the impact of the award has an even greater reach given that some of the recipients were sons of other nations who enlisted with a country in the British Empire or Commonwealth and performed an act of conspicuous Pro Valore: Canada’s Victoria Cross 5 bravery.

The annual report describes the key activities of the Office, along with the costs to deliver its programs.

As senior adviser, the secretary provides the governor general with support for constitutional, official and ceremonial duties. The secretary helps to shape and interpret the governor general’s orientation, vision and program. In addition, the secretary must respond promptly to changing circumstances, ensuring that the governor general’s activities are relevant and that events proceed smoothly. This report contains the story of how we accomplished this goal in 2009-2010. This year, the Office has updated its 2008-2011 Strategic Plan, which is the foundation for assessing and addressing the current and future needs of the organization in order to achieve our business priorities.

    Annual Report 2006–07 Office of the Secretary to the Governor General · Annual Report 2006–07 Message from the Secretary to the Governor General and Herald Chancellor It is a pleasure for me to invite Canadians to review the fourth annual report by the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General (OSGG). The OSGG exists to support the governor general and commander-in-chief of Canada in carrying out his or her constitutional and State duties together with an active program aimed at highlighting the evolving nature of Canadian society and the contributions and achievements of our fellow citizens. The fiscal year under review, 2006-2007, marked the first full year of Her Excellency the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean’s mandate. In addition to carrying out her constitutional and State duties that are highlighted in this annual report, the importance of the governor general’s role in promoting and celebrating Canadian excellence was demonstrated by honouring Canadian excellence through the honours program, which recognizes ordinary Canadians for extraordinary service, bravery and academic achievement; showcasing talented Canadian performers through the free summer concerts at Rideau Hall; and promoting the excellence of Canadian food and wine through the events offered at the two official residences. The governor general’s role as Commander-in-Chief of Canada was highlighted through support for the Canadian Forces and the importance of the work they are doing on behalf of Canada. The governor general visited deployed troops in Afghanistan and deployed sailors aboard HMCS Iroquois; participated in several repatriation ceremonies at CFB Trenton for fallen soldiers and participated in pre-deployment activities at CFB Petawawa.
