Commissioner of Yukon honours outstanding Yukoners with King Charles III Coronation Medals

Today, the Commissioner of Yukon Adeline Webber is launching the King Charles III Coronation Medal program in the Yukon. The Commissioner is a partner in the program and has 21 medals to give to deserving Yukoners.

To be eligible, nominees must have done something remarkable for Canada or their community and been alive on May 6, 2023. The first medals were given out today during an event at Taylor House. Commissioner Webber will present the medals.

This program and medal were created to celebrate the Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III on May 6, 2023. This special medal recognizes 30,000 exceptional individuals of all ages and backgrounds across Canada who have made a positive difference in their communities.

I’m pleased to be a partner in this program to give recognition where it is due. This program is a way to say thank you to those who have contributed so much to our communities.

Commissioner of Yukon Adeline Webber
