  • 1 the Crown and Honours
    The Crown and Honours: Getting it Right Christopher McCreery I N T R O D U C T I O N In the words of that early scholar of Commonwealth autonomy, Sir Arthur Berridale Keith, “The Crown is the fount of all honour.”i The role of the Crown as the fount of all official honours in Canada is a precept that is as old and constant as is the place of the Crown in our constitutional structure. Since the days of King Louis XIV residents of Canada have been honoured by the Crown for their services with a variety of orders, decorations and medals. The position of the Crown in the modern Canadian honours system is something that is firmly entrenched, despite consistent attempts to marginalize it in recent years. Indeed honours are not something separate from the Crown, they are an integral element of the Crown. A part that affords individuals with official recognition for what are deemed as good works, or in the modern context, exemplary citizenship. Just last year we witnessed the Queen’s direct involvement in the honours system when she appointed Jean Chrétien as a member of the Order of Merit. While many commentators and officials in Canada seemed confused as to just what this honour is – the highest civil honour for service – people did realize how significant it was, in large part because it came not from a committee or politician, but directly from the Sovereign. With this paper I will delve into the central role the Crown and Sovereign play in the creation of honours and I will also explore the areas where attention and reform are required in the Canadian honours system.

  • Canada's Victoria Cross
    Canada’s Victoria Cross Governor General Gouverneur général of Canada du Canada Pro Valore: Canada’s Victoria Cross 1 For more information, contact: The Chancellery of Honours Office of the Secretary to the Governor General Rideau Hall 1 Sussex Drive Ottawa, ON K1A 0A1 www.gg.ca 1-800-465-6890 Directorate of Honours and Recognition National Defence Headquarters 101 Colonel By Drive Ottawa, ON K1A 0K2 www.forces.gc.ca 1-877-741-8332 Art Direction ADM(PA) DPAPS CS08-0032 Introduction At first glance, the Victoria Cross does not appear to be an impressive decoration. 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.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2009-2010 Office of the Secretary to the Governor General Rideau Hall 1 Sussex Drive Ottawa ON K1A 0A1 Canada www.gg.ca © Her Majesty The Queen in Right of Canada represented by the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General (2010). 2 MESSAGE FROM THE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNOR GENERAL AND HERALD CHANCELLOR We are pleased to invite Canadians to review the Annual Report 2009-2010 of the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General. The annual report describes the key activities of the Office, along with the costs to deliver its programs. More importantly, the report reflects the value that the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General provides to every Canadian. The Office of the Secretary to the Governor General exists to support the governor general and commander-in-chief of Canada in the execution of constitutional and State duties. The Office also works to offer a program that highlights the evolving nature of Canadian society and the contributions and achievements of Canadians. 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.

I was greatly honoured, more so perhaps than if I had been told I was going to receive a decoration, for I knew the long tradition behind this special honour from the Crown, and especially that it was strictly limited to operational achievements. Today, as Chief of the Defence Staff, it is with great pride that I note 2016 marks the 25th anniversary of the modern Canadian Mention in Dispatches.
