Can anybody identify these medals? My dad had them but I'm not sure where they came from. My father, grandfather and great grandfather all served in the military (Canadian army reserves, Austrian army, and Wehrmacht respectively). Given the English and French writing I would expect them to be from my father's time in the Canadian reserves, but the dates don't line up (he served in the late 80s and early 90s) and he didn't participate in any combat or anything so I don't see how I could have been awarded any medals, plus he never mentioned anything like that. The European style imagery also seems to not be Canadian. However the dates and language clearly don't along with my grandfather who served in the Austrian army in the early 60s, and they are clearly not Wehrmacht medals.
Anybody recognize them?

I believe the first one is the "Community cleanup" merit badge found in what would be the Canadian equivalent of the Boy Scouts.
