A ceremony highlighting the issuance of the King Charles III’s Coronation Medal to Vancouver Island RCMP officers was held in Duncan, BC on March 20, 2025.
The King’s Coronation medal was struck by the Royal Canadian Mint to commemorate the Coronation of King Charles III in 2023. Of the 30,000 medals to be awarded to Canadians, the RCMP in British Columbia (E Division) received an allotment of 491 medals. The medal is to be awarded to employees who have made significant contributions to the RCMP, their community, Canada as a whole, and/or have made an outstanding achievement abroad that brings credit to the RCMP or Canada.
56 RCMP officers and staff throughout Vancouver Island District were awarded the medal.
It truly is an honour and I take pride in presenting these individuals with this particular award, said C/Supt. Bruce Singer, Vancouver Island District RCMP commander. From a leadership perspective, it is important to recognize the valuable service and contribution these women and men in the RCMP have made throughout their careers. I also want to extend a special thank you to the spouses, partners and families of our recipients as their sacrifice and support will never be forgotten and is very much appreciated.
