Order of Ontario


 

The Order of Ontario is an award given in the Canadian province of Ontario. Created in 1986 by then Lieutenant Governor Lincoln Alexander, the award is the most prestigious official honour in the province. The Order recognizes the highest level of individual excellence and achievement in any field, but is not awarded for acts of bravery.

Selection for Membership

Each year, recipients of the award are selected by an Advisory Council consisting of the Chief Justice of Ontario (chair), the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario, and the Secretary of the Cabinet, as well as other members of the Order.
