Jamaica Govt. Confers CD on Ewart “Fatz” Walters
Congratulations to Ewart “Fatz” Walters, editor of the spectrum newspaper in Ottawa, who has been appointed to Jamaica’s Order of Distinction,
in the rank of Commander. The appointment is in recognition of his service in the
“Promotion and Defence of the Rights of Jamaicans and other Ethnic Minorities in Canada.”
The appointment became effective on Independence Day 2010 (Aug. 2) and the investiture will take place
at King’s House on National Heroes Day, Oct. 18.
The Order of Distinction has two ranks, namely: (1) Commander (CD) and (2) Officer (OD). The honour of the Order may be conferred upon any citizen of Jamaica who renders outstanding and important services to Jamaica and upon any distinguished citizen of a country other than Jamaica (an honorary member). The motto of the Order is "Distinction through Service"
The insignia of the Order of Distinction (Commander) is a triangular badge with curved sides. In the centre is a black medallion bearing the Arms of Jamaica in gold; the words of the motto of the Order are in black. The Badge is suspended from a silk collar riband of black, gold and green by a silver finial of two intertwined letters "J" attached to the uppermost point of the triangle.
