Nominations Open for 2017 Saskatchewan Order of Merit

Released on August 17, 2016

Today Lieutenant Governor Vaughn Solomon Schofield announced a public call for nominations for the Saskatchewan Order of Merit.  Individuals have until November 1 to put forward names for the province’s highest honour.

“Each day I am grateful to live in a province with so many exceptional people, whose work has impacted not only those here at home, but people far beyond our borders,” Solomon Schofield said.  “The Saskatchewan Order of Merit enables us to thank our remarkable citizens and to celebrate their achievements.  Please consider nominating a deserving individual to receive our province's highest honour.”

The Saskatchewan Order of Merit recognizes excellence, achievement and contributions to the social, cultural and economic well-being of the province.


Saskatchewan Order of Merit nominees must be current or former long-term residents of the province and Canadian citizens.  Posthumous nominations are accepted if the individual has passed since November 1, 2015.  Groups and organizations are ineligible to be nominated, along with sitting members of Parliament, the Legislature or the judiciary.

Selected recipients will be invested to the Order at a ceremony with the Lieutenant Governor in Regina during Canada’s sesquicentennial year, in the late spring of 2017.

The province strives to recognize individuals and groups that make Saskatchewan an even better place to live.  

Nomination calls are also open for the 2016 Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal, the Premier’s Service Club Awards, and the Premier’s Award for Excellence in the Public Service.
