Heraldry is now. Heraldry is fun. And most of all, heraldry is Canadian! A Canadian Heraldic Primer dispels, once and for all, the myth that coats of arms are boring, snobbish, mediaeval holdovers that have no relevance today. Using cartoons, humour, and not a little irreverence (in which is concealed a surprising amount of information), Kevin Greaves explains the history behind heraldry's unique conventions and language, and explores its creative possibilities. He shows heraldry as part of the fabric of Canada's past, present, and future, and illustrates how this lively art has become livelier since Canada became master of its own heraldic system in 1988.

I am delighted to release the third edition of the popular text on Northern Canadian heraldry. What started to be a small project has grown into something larger that I could not have possibly imagined. Readers of the first two editions were prompt to give me comments and suggestions in order to improve the second edition as the news of the text spread. After compiling these comments, I am happy to present to you this third edition of the documentation of heraldry in Northern Canada. You will find that the most notable addition to the text is the artwork of the achievements. This will help assist in describing the details of each component. You will also notice several additions such as a new section on Ecclesiastical heraldry and even a section on Badges in Northern Canada as well as a Military section. Thank you again for your continued support in this project.
