Overview: Twice a year, in summer and in winter, appointments to the Order of Canada are posted in newspapers across the country. The range of professions represented is often dizzying, but there are common themes in the choices: excellence, service to the nation, passion, innovation, commitment, dedication, brilliance. The order's motto effectively captures the generous and selfless spirit of these people: Desiderantes meliorem patriam--they desire a better country. The Order of Canada--our nation's highest honour--was launched fifty years ago in 1967 by then-Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson. Since then, almost seven thousand Canadians have received the award for service to their communities, to the nation and, in some cases, to the world. To celebrate the Order of Canada's fiftieth anniversary in 2017, the Rideau Hall Foundation commissioned this exceptional book with the aim of encouraging Canadians to learn about some of the remarkable individuals who have garnered this prestigious award. And although this book captures only a handful of their stories, it is a reflection of the inspiration all Order of Canada members bestow upon us. You'll meet luminaries and unheralded wave-makers alike, of every age, from coast to coast to coast, and marvel at the breathtaking diversity of their achievements. You may learn things about celebrated individuals that you didn't know before, and be introduced to extraordinary people whose names and work are unfamiliar, but who nonetheless have made a lasting impact. Choosing recipients for the Order of Canada is an elaborate process. Any citizen can nominate another citizen. Every year, between four hundred and six hundred names are filed with the Chancellery of Honours, the branch of the Governor General's office that oversees the selection process. Members of the Order are recognized for their contributions at a local or regional level. Officers of the Order earn it for service or accomplishment at the national level. And Companions of the Order are recognized for pre-eminent service with international impact. In 1967, though, one of the biggest obstacles to the creation of the Order of Canada was its design. What would it look like? The graphic designer whose job it was to create the insignia for the Order nervously pondered his weighty assignment. One afternoon, as he walked out from his office, it started to snow. As every Canadian knows, it's impossible to walk through falling snow without snowflakes hitting you in the eye. He was suddenly struck with inspiration ... and the snowflake insignia was born. The next time you see someone wearing the distinctive snowflake lapel pin, ask them about their story--it will be as fascinating and inspiring as any of those told in this book, and it will serve as a reminder of all that is good and great about the place we call our home and native land. Deux fois par an, en ete et en hiver, les nominations a l'Ordre du Canada sont publiees dans les journaux du pays. L'eventail des professions representees a de quoi donner le tournis, mais l'on degage des themes communs dans les choix qui sont faits: l'excellence, le service a la nation, la passion, l'innovation, le devouement, l'intelligence. La devise de l'Ordre capte l'esprit de generosite et d'altruisme des recipiendaires: Desiderantes meliorem patriam -- ils desirent une patrie meilleure. L'Ordre du Canada, la distinction honorifique la plus prestigieuse de notre nation, a ete cree il y a cinquante ans, en 1967, par le premier ministre Lester B. Pearson. Depuis, pres de sept milles Canadiens en ont ete investis, en reconnaissance des services rendus a leur communaute, a la nation ou au monde. Pour celebrer le cinquantieme anniversaire de l'Ordre du Canada, en 2017, la Fondation Rideau Hall a commande ce livre exceptionnel afin d'encourager les Canadiens a en apprendre davantage sur les recipiendaires remarquables de cette prestigieuse distinction. Ce livre ne raconte qu'une poignee de leurs histoires, mais il temoigne de la capacite des membres de l'Ordre du Canada a nous inspirer. Vous ferez la connaissance de sommites et de createurs meconnus de tout age, qui proviennent de tous les coins du pays, et vous vous emerveillerez devant la diversite saisissante des realisations canadiennes. Vous apprendrez des choses que vous ignoriez sur des personnalites de marque et decouvrirez des personnes remarquables dont vous ne connaissiez peut-etre ni le nom ni le travail, mais qui ont eu une empreinte durable. La selection des recipiendaires de l'Ordre du Canada est un processus abouti. Tout citoyen canadien peut proposer la candidature d'un compatriote. La Chancellerie des distinctions honorifiques, le service du Bureau du secretaire du gouverneur general qui voit a ces formalites, recoit chaque annee entre quatre et six cents noms. Les Membres de l'Ordre sont reconnus pour leur contribution a l'echelle locale ou regionale. Les Officiers de l'Ordre ont a leur actif des services ou des realisations d'envergure nationale. Enfin, les Compagnons sont celebres pour leur contribution eminente au rayonnement international. En 1967, un des plus gros obstacles a la creation de l'Ordre du Canada consistait a creer son insigne. Le graphiste charge de la conception envisageait avec nervosite la lourde tache qui l'attendait. Alors qu'il revenait de son bureau un apres-midi, il se mit a neiger. Tout Canadien le sait, il est impossible de marcher quand il neige sans prendre un flocon dans l'oeil. Et c'est ainsi qu'est ne l'insigne en forme de flocon. La prochaine fois que vous croisez quelqu'un qui porte l'epinglette distinctive en forme de flocon, demandez-lui de vous raconter son histoire! Vous entendrez alors un recit aussi fascinant et inspirant que ceux racontes dans ce livre et vous vous souviendrez de la bonte et la beaute de la terre de nos aieux.
