The Canadian Efficiency Decoration was a Canadian military award given to officers of the non-permanent active militia, RCAF Auxiliary and Reserve who completed twenty years of meritorious military service. A bar was issued for an additional 20 years of meritorious service. Approximately 3,700 medals were issued.

Time spent in war service counted double towards the 20 year requirement and time spent in the ranks counted as half. This award was superseded by the Canadian Forces Decoration.
