Looks like the more common of the Canadian WWII service medals (L to R): Canadian Volunteer Service Medal, War Medal, Italy Medal, and 1939-1945 Star. Note that it appears that the ribbon from your CVSM and your War Medals are reversed (and the bar belongs with the CVSM). I also believe correct order of preference L-R (when facing them) is: 39-45 Star, Italy, CVSM, War.

It also appears to me that things got a little mixed up somewhere along the way.
Thanks for the info. and the links. Medals were my grandpas and they were sent out to be framed(possibly why somethings have been moved). My mom has them at her house now, and I wondered what they were for. He passed away in my twenty's and I never had the courage to ask, and he never talked about it, plus I had never seen the medals until after my grandma passed away.
If they were my Grandfather's medals I would get them "Court Mounted" in the proper sequence. A person experience in Court Mounting medals would be familiar with the proper sequence and they look a lot better in a frame IMO. It probably cost $15 per medal or a flat rate of about $50.....I'm guessing.
