==Canadian heraldry== A tabard for the [[Chief Herald of Canada]] to wear on special occasions was unveiled in May 2012 by [[David Johnston (governor general)|David Johnston]], the [[Governor General of Canada]]. The tabard weighs {{convert|2|kg|lbs}} and is coloured in [[royal blue]], a colour emblematic of the governor general. The tabard is made up of four sections that include several symbols. Its body is embroidered with stripes of alternating maple leaves with raven-bears at the body's centre. The raven-bears are derived from the supporters of the arms of the CHA, and were designed in the emblematic tradition of [[Coast Salish]] and [[Kwakwakaʼwakw]] nation. Unlike traditional tabards, the coat of arms of Canada is embroidered on the tabard's sleeves.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.heraldry.ca/content/project_tabard.php|title=CHA Tabard Project|year=2024|access-date=12 June 2024|publisher=Royal Heraldry Society of Canada|website=www.heraldry.ca}}</ref>
