Meritorious Service Cross

The Meritorious Service Cross ((フランス語:Croix du service méritoire)) is a decoration that is, within the Canadian system of honours, one of the two Meritorious Service Decorations gifted by the Canadian monarch, generally through his or her Governor-in-Council. Created in 1984, the medal is intended to recognize individuals—both Canadian and foreign—who have carried out meritorious acts bringing benefit and honour in either of two categories: military and civilian. Award of the medal grants recipients the ability to use post-nominal letters; in English: ''MSC'', and in French: ''CSM''.〔
==Design==
The Meritorious Service Cross, for both divisions, is in the form of a Greek cross with the arms across, the ends splayed and rounded, a laurel wreath visible between them, and a St. Edward's Crown, as a symbol of the Canadian monarch's role as the fount of honour, capping the top arm. At the cross' centre, on the obverse, is a roundel bearing a maple leaf, and on the reverse is two concentric circles, the inner one containing an etched Royal Cypher of the reigning monarch, and the outer one engraved with the words ''MERITORIOUS SERVICE MÉRITOIRE''.〔
This medallion is worn on the left chest, on a wide, blue and white ribbon; however, that for the military division has only two white stripes, each 6mm wide and centred on the outer third of each side of the ribbon, while that for the civilian division has an additional 1mm wide white stripe centred between the other two. For men, the cross is hung from a bar, and for women, on a ribbon bow, both pinned to the left chest.〔 Should an individual already possessing a Meritorious Service Cross be awarded the medal again, he or she is granted a medal bar, in silver and bearing a central maple leaf, for wear on the ribbon from which the original medal is suspended.〔
