NEW LICENCE PLATE TO HONOUR SASKATCHEWAN VETERANS

Released on November 10, 2004

A special legal issue licence plate to honour veterans' contributions and service to Canada was unveiled today following a Service of Remembrance at the Legislature. The new licence plates will be available to veterans in February 2005.

"I'm pleased today to unveil a special licence plate in honour of our veterans," Premier Lorne Calvert said. "These special licence plates were designed to pay tribute to our veterans and show our appreciation for their contributions to both Canada and the world."

The new licence plate, intended for the rear of the vehicle, will be available to veterans who served during wartime or in a post-war capacity. They will also be available to veterans who served in the Reserve forces and those who served during a North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) or United Nations (UN) operation, including members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).

The Saskatchewan Command of the Royal Canadian Legion worked closely with government and played a key role in bringing the special veterans plate to the province.

"We're happy to be involved in an initiative that reminds the people of this province of the sacrifice and service of our veterans," Provincial Legion President John Henderson said. "The new licence plate will help to honour the legacy of veterans who reside in Saskatchewan."

Beginning in early January, veterans can order their licence plates through SGI. Forms will be available at all provincial Legion offices, SGI motor licence issuer offices and online at www.sgi.sk.ca. Applicants will need to have their status as veterans confirmed by the Royal Canadian Legion. A small fee of $5 will be collected by the Legion to cover administrative costs.
