Nominations Now Open for the King Charles III Coronation Medal
Nominations are now open for the King Charles III Coronation Medal honouring the Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III, which took place on May 6, 2023, and I need your help.
As the Member of Parliament for Nanaimo – Ladysmith, I am pleased to participate as a nominating partner with the Governor General of Canada. I have been allocated with 20 medals to present to deserving recipients in our Nanaimo – Ladysmith communities.
I am inviting individuals to nominate outstanding Nanaimo – Ladysmith community members who have made a difference in our communities for consideration for a King Charles III Coronation Medal.
Eligible candidates must meet the following national criteria:
- Have made significant contributions to the country, a province, territory, region or community, or an achievement abroad that brings credit to Canada, and
- Were alive on May 6, 2023, the date of His Majesty’s Coronation. Note: this medal can be awarded posthumously if the nominee was alive on the coronation date.
Consideration will be given to residents of Nanaimo – Ladysmith. Particular emphasis will be given to our local unsung heroes who have never received a national honour for their efforts, and who highlight themes that both King Charles III and Canadians hold dear, including service to others, protection of the environment, youth empowerment, and the importance of diversity.
