Postnominal OM[edit]

I've just become aware of this award, and it seems odd that "OM" would have been chosen as the postnominal, given that OM is already used for the Order of Merit. It's certainly possible that a Canadian person could be given both awards, and they'd be, e.g. Bill Smith OM OM. I appreciate that "Order of Manitoba" virtually demands OM, but what about the pre-existing postnominal? Did this problem not occur to anyone when they were deciding on the most appropriate postnominal? The other issue is that, someone seeing say "Neil Young OM" (as I did, which led me to this page), is liable to believe they're a member of the Order of Merit, when they're not. -- JackofOz (talk) 07:24, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pic[edit]

Can someone find and upload a picture of the medal? This would be a nice touch. SuperX9 (talk) 17:51, 29 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Done, found it in commons. EricSerge (talk) 20:14, 29 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It's a terrible picture, though. --Ħ MIESIANIACAL 20:15, 29 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
