Default Unknown medal ribbon

Anyone know what this ribbon is for - I'm stumped. It's on a post-war Canadian battledress.
Cheers,
Burton

Default Ribbon

Hi Burton;

It is the UNEF Medal. Sometimes called the 'UNEF 1' medal as it was the First UN Emergency Force Medal issued between 1956-1967.

UNEF 11 was between 1973-1979.

Both operations were in Egypt.

Cheers Al
