The orders,decorations,and medals of the Canadian provinces,in which each province of Canada has devised a system of orders and other awards to honour residents for actions or deeds that benefit their local community or province,are in turn subsumed within the Canadian honours system. Each province sets its own rules and criteria for eligibility and also for how each award is presented. Most of the awards allow for the recipients to wear their awards in public,and most grant the recipients the use of post-nominal letters after their names. Not all of the awards listed below are part of the Canadian honours system,thus some of them may not be worn or court mounted with awards that are part of the Canadian honours system.
