Do you know someone in our community who has made an outstanding contribution to Canada? If so, please consider nominating them for the King Charles III Coronation Medal.

The King Charles III Coronation Medal is a visible and tangible way to recognize 30,000 outstanding individuals of all ages who have made a difference in their communities. The commemorative medal has been created to mark His Majesty King Charles III’s Coronation on May 6, 2023. The Medal will highlight themes that both King Charles III and Canadians hold dear, including service, the environment and sustainability, and our nation’s diversity.

Nominees may be selected for their long service as a volunteer or member of an organization; for having demonstrated high professionalism; or for performing a deed or activity that brings great credit to Canada.

Nominations should focus on the achievements of persons who have helped build Canada, including youth, volunteers, educators, veterans and health care workers. Nominees must be individuals and can’t be self-nominated. We encourage nominations that reflect an inclusive and diverse group of community members who will have made their impact in diverse ways.
