Polar Medallion

The Polar Medallion is presented as a symbol of appreciation, gratitude, and respect for the ongoing support serving and veteran military members receive from their friends, co-workers and loved ones.

It acknowledges them as they embody the values of Honour, Love and Respect. It also recognizes the sacrifices made to support the member during their unique Northern posting.

Nominations will be accepted by serving members and veterans for spouses, dependants, family, and those you considered to be family.  This program is open to members and veterans within Yellowknife, Iqaluit and Whitehorse. 

Polar Medallions will be presented in a way that is meaningful to the receiving person.  You may choose to present the Polar Medallion personally in a setting of your choosing or have it presented in a ceremony where military dependants will be recognized.  

To nominate someone who has made a personal or professional impact on your military career, please complete the form below, one per nomination.
