The Lord Strathcona Medal is the highest award that can be bestowed upon a Canadian cadet in recognition of exemplary performance in physical and military training.

Lord Strathcona's objectives in establishing his endowment were to:

  • encourage the improvement of the physical and intellectual capabilities of cadets; and
  • foster patriotism in cadets through the acquisition of a good knowledge of military matters.

This medal is not part of the Canadian Honours System and should only be worn on cadet uniforms.
