Mr Grant Grice, a Border Service Officer at the Fort Erie, Ontario Port of Entry isn’t listed as a recipient of the Medal of Bravery (MB) nor the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal (QDJM). So, why would he be wearing the ribbons of those awards alongside those of the Canadian Peacekeeping Service Medal and a Cadet Service Medal awarded by the Legion?
The Medal of Bravery (MB) recognizes acts of bravery in hazardous circumstances.
(2) Canadian Peacekeeping Service Medal (CPSM) 1999
Awarded for a minimum of 30 days cumulative service in a UN or international peacekeeping mission.
(3) Queen Elizabeth II’s Diamond Jubilee Medal (QDJM) 2012
The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal commemorates the 60th anniversary of the Accession of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second to the Throne as Queen of Canada. Recipients must have made significant contributions to Canada.
Was Grant Grice riding on the coat tail’s of a legitimate recipient with the same last name?
Perhaps, it was Grice’s messed up medal ribbons that drew the attention of an individual knowledgeable in Canadian Honours System that led to the dime being dropped on him?
Or, was it his amazing tales of heroism in the Gulf of Oman when he rescued pirates from a burning boat. When asked, he’d tell a story of jumping off HMCS Toronto, (disobeying standing orders ) with five other sailors to save a Somali ship that was on fire. People were dying in the water and six sailors jumped off of the ship to save them (that’s not how a rescue at sea works…) Grice told his co-workers that he rescue two pirates while two RCN sailors, which he named, died.
His Majesty the King v Grant Grice
Proceedings 17 December 2025 @ Welland, Ont
There have been 3314 MBs awarded since the inception of the medal in 1972. It recognizes individuals deemed to have performed “acts of bravery in hazardous circumstances”. Amazingly, not one of the MB citations is even remotely similar to Grice’s military themed fairy tales.
All recipients of the MB are known less 3 individuals who haven’t been named publicly named due to security considerations.
The Cadet Medal of Excellence is awarded by the Royal Canadian Legion in recognition for individual endeavours in citizenship that meet or enhance the aims and objectives of the cadet movement. Only official insignia included in the Canadian Order of Precedence , or honours (including foreign honours) which have been officially authorized by the Government of Canada, can be worn.
Grice’s actions triggered a police investigation that resulted in his arrest by Niagara Regional Police and being charged under Section 419 of the Criminal Code of Canada, the Unlawful use of military uniforms or certificates

He made his first appearance @ the Welland, Ontario Courthouse in January 2025 and his latest/last on 17 December 2025.
Grice plead guilty to S.419 CCC this resulted in him being awarded a Conditional Discharge, 18 months probation and no contact with his victims.
Mr Grant Grice received an early Christmas present from the court this morning. (17 Dec 2025) A significant fine would have served to discourage others who make the conscious choice to insult the service and sacrifice of service members. However, his sentence / probation is bound to leave a mark…
Grice, who fraudulently wore the ribbon of the Medal of Bravery on his CBSA uniform, insulted the exceptional Canadians, both civilians and military, who legitimately stepped up in the most dangerous of situations and did the right thing.
He never did!
His fraudulent wear of the Canadian Peacekeeping Service Medal and the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal is an affront to the national honours and awards system and brings into question the awards to rightful recipients.
His fraudulent claims of naval service and losing shipmates while on deployed operations are reprehensible and cannot be forgiven.
He will remain on our media platforms in perpetuity.
