Canadian Forces order of precedence

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

All units of the Canadian Forces have an order of precedence that determines seniority; it often decides such matters as which unit forms up to the right (senior side) of other units on a ceremonial parade, or the order in which marches or calls are played at a Mess Dinner.
