Recognizing excellence and merit, the Ordre national du Québec is an “honorary order”.
The expression Ordre national du Québec designates two things:
The Ordre national du Québec (in the sense of “decoration”) seeks to recognize and promote excellence. It is the highest award Québec bestows. Hence, its motto: Homage to the people of Québec.
Its main purpose is to honour the merits of individuals who have made an exceptional contribution to building and revitalizing Québec society.
The Ordre national du Québec (in the sense of “those decorated”) is intended as a beacon of social development.
The men and women inducted into it must be the living embodiment of excellence.
