Lord Dufferin, troisième Gouverneur général du Canada depuis la Confédération, a créé la Médaille académique en 1873 pour promouvoir l'excellence en milieu scolaire partout au pays. Au fil des ans, elle est devenue la récompense la plus prestigieuse que puisse recevoir un élève ou un étudiant fréquentant une maison d'enseignement canadienne. Aujourd'hui, la Médaille académique du Gouverneur général est octroyée à quatre niveaux différents : le bronze aux diplômés du secondaire, le bronze collégial aux diplômés du collégial, l'argent aux diplômés du premier cycle universitaire et l'or aux diplômés des deuxième et troisième cycles. Cette médaille est remise au nom du gouverneur général par les établissements d'enseignement participants, en même temps qu'un certificat personnalisé signé par la Gouverneure générale. Aucune récompense en argent ne l'accompagne. 1, record 12, French, - M%C3%A9daille%20acad%C3%A9mique%20du%20Gouverneur%20g%C3%A9n%C3%A9ral

The Michener Award honours and celebrates outstanding public service in journalism. Entries are judged particularly for their professionalism and their impact on the public. Daily and weekly newspapers, news agencies, radio and television stations and networks and periodicals are eligible. Consideration is given to the resources available. There is one annual winner. A runner-up is awarded Honourable Mention. Additional Citations of Merit are at the discretion of the judges. The awards are to news organizations, rather than to individuals. A comparable award in the United States is the Pulitzer gold medal for public service by a newspaper. 1, record 16, English, - Michener%20Awards%20for%20Journalism
