Here's an interesting document detailing the history and manufacturing of the Canadian VC.

I wish that we would have kept the original design " For Valour ", but it seems that tradition is taboo these days. At least our current Prime Minister is re-instituting the original ranking systems and Regimental names. My Grandfather was a Commanding Officer of the North Shore ( New Brunswick ) Regiment pre WWII which perpetuated the 132nd North Shore Battalion CEF. Back in the 50's they amalgamated several New Brunswick regiments into the Royal New Brunswick Regiment, much to the dismay of my Grandfather and all the other soldiers of this Regiment which landed on Juno Beach on D-Day. But what do politicians care?
