The Medal of Honour is a distinction awarded by the President of the National Assembly to prominent Quebec citizens of different stripes who, through their careers, achievements or commitment, are worthy of recognition by the entire National Assembly and Quebec society. Recipients are selected based on the unanimous recommendation to the President of the National Assembly by a committee of deputies representing all parliamentary groups.
