The Order of Canada (French: Ordre du Canada) is a Canadian state order and the second-highest honour for merit in the system of orders, decorations, and medals of Canada, after the Order of Merit.

To coincide with the centennial of Canadian Confederation, the three-tiered order was established in 1967 as a fellowship recognizing the outstanding merit or distinguished service of Canadians who make a major difference to Canada through lifelong contributions in every field of endeavour, as well as efforts by non-Canadians who have made the world better by their actions. Membership is accorded to those who exemplify the order's Latin motto, desiderantes meliorem patriam, meaning "they desire a better country", a phrase taken from Hebrews 11:16.^[2] The three tiers of the order are Companion, Officer and Member. Specific people may be given extraordinary membership and deserving non-Canadians may receive honorary appointment into each grade.

加拿大勋章（法语：Ordre du Canada）是加拿大的国家勋章，在加拿大的勋章、装饰和奖章系统中，仅次于功绩勋章，为第二高的荣誉。

为了纪念加拿大联邦成立一百周年，这一三阶勋章于1967年设立，旨在表彰通过毕生的贡献在各个领域对加拿大做出重大贡献的加拿大人的杰出功绩或卓越服务，以及那些通过行动使世界变得更美好的非加拿大人。勋章授予那些体现勋章拉丁语格言“desiderantes meliorem patriam”（意为“他们渴望一个更好的国家”，摘自《希伯来书》11:16）精神的人。勋章分为三个等级：同伴勋章、军官勋章和成员勋章。特定人士可被授予特殊会员资格，值得表彰的非加拿大人可获得每个等级的荣誉任命。
