The Canadian Delegation


Headquartered in Ottawa (Ontario), the Canadian Delegation of the Dynastic Orders of the Royal House of Savoia (Savoy) is one among 36 Delegations located throughout the world. 

Led by a Delegate appointed by the Grand Master, the Delegation administers the Dynastic Orders to those Knights and Dames whom are recognized for their service to the Royal House.


Nationally, the Delegate appoints members to the National Council, which meets semi-annually to assist with the administration of the Dynastic Orders in Canada. The meeting includes reports from the Vice Delegate, Prior, Secretary, Treasurer, Special Advisor, Special Project Coordinators, and the Delegation's regional representatives. During these meetings the Delegate and their team, plan the Delegation's charitable events and various programs.

The Canadian Delegation's National Council:

 Cav. Giuseppe Ruffolo- Delegate
 Cav. Giuseppe Castrucci- Vice Delegate
Fr. (Rev. Canon) Timothy P.V. Nelligan- Prior
Dam. Alda Ruffolo- Secretary 
Dam. Caroline Castrucci- Treasurer 
Cav. Donald Michaluk- Special Advisor 


As part of the International Association of Dames and Knights of the Royal House of Savoy, the Canadian Delegation along with its members, candidates, and friends of the Dynastic Orders, attend the annual Capitolo Generale (Chapter General) of the Orders, usually held each year in Geneva Switzerland or in Rome, Italy. 

Currently, the Canadian Delegation has pursued its charitable initiative with supporting Vets Canada – The War Veterans Emergency Transition Services. This is a non-profit organization which provides aid and comfort to Canadian Veterans that are in crisis, are at risk of becoming homeless or are homeless.
