This article appears to be very well written; it is clear, concise and to the point. It uses language which is understandable and needs very little explanation thanks to the significant use of references and external links.

Any outstanding problems to resolve?
Section 2.1 - 2 areas of duty missing from the table Section 2.2 - 4 badges missing from table denoting holders of honorary positions.
 * ✅ - no images were available // roux 

Section 3.2 - ''The processing fee for all petitioners is $435 CAD[12] (plus GST), with the cost of one preliminary design ranging from $200 to $1,000. The cost of the final design, as illustrated on the letters patent, ranges from $900 to $3,500. It should be noted that the petitioner does not "buy" a coat of arms: the arms themselves are freely given to qualified individuals, but fees must be paid to the heralds and artists for the services rendered.[10]''


 * On first usage, all abbreviations should ideally, be lengthened to their full form and linked thus: Canadian Dollar instead of CAD
 * MOSNUM seems to say that the abbreviation is fine, I think? // roux 

Image Issues
INFOBOX: The blazon used here is the same as the image used in Section 4.1 - please see below.

Section 2.2 - The 4 badges used in this section are marked as fair use, but no rationale has been added for any of them. This must be resolved.

Section 4.1 - The blazon image used to the right is marked as fair use, but no rationale has been added. This must be resolved.

Section 4.2 - The "badge of authority" image used to the right is marked as fair use, but no rationale has been added. This must be resolved.

The image issues mentioned are violations of Section 6 (Part A) of the Good Article Criteria - "(a) images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content".
