Next month, there will be six new inductees into the Saskatchewan Order of Merit which is the province’s highest honour.

Lieutenant Governor Russ Mirasty says, “The 2021 recipients of the Saskatchewan Order of Merit are remarkable citizens who are most deserving of this prestigious honour.” And he describes their contributions as invaluable.

From Regina: Mavis Ashbourne-Palmer; Hart Godden; Solomon Ratt. Also being invested are: Michael Bishop of Kamsack; Albert Brown, Saskatoon; Marie-Anne DayWalker-Pelletier, C.M., Balcarres

This year’s recipients of the Saskatchewan Order of Merit will join the 252 individuals who have previously been invested.

The Saskatchewan Order of Merit was established in 1985 to recognize excellence and achievement in areas such as art, agriculture, business and industry, community leadership, public service, research and volunteer service.
