HONOURING SASKATCHEWAN'S PROTECTIVE SERVICES PERSONNEL

Released on October 27, 2004

Lieutenant Governor Lynda Haverstock presented the Saskatchewan Protective Services Medal to 38 recipients at the Kinsmen Lobby of the E.A. Rawlinson Centre in Prince Albert today. The medal recognizes individuals who have 25 years of exemplary service protecting the people of Saskatchewan or their property. This can be in either a volunteer or a full-time capacity.

Recipients receiving the Saskatchewan Protective Services Medal at the ceremony today include:

• RCMP members from Prince Albert, Rose Valley, Waskesiu, La Ronge and Buffalo Narrows;

• a municipal police officer from Prince Albert;

• fire protection personnel from Prince Albert, Nipawin and Tisdale;

• a Highways and Transportation Officer from Prince Albert;

• Correctional Service of Canada staff and Saskatchewan Corrections and Public Safety workers from Prince Albert; and

• Saskatchewan Environment Officers from Prince Albert and La Ronge.

"I am pleased that our province has the Saskatchewan Protective Services Medal as a way to honour individuals who protect the people and property of our province," Prince Albert Carlton MLA Myron Kowalsky said on behalf of Provincial Secretary Joan Beatty. "It is a comfort knowing that there are so many dedicated individuals working to keep residents in this province safe."

The Saskatchewan Protective Services Medal was announced by Premier Lorne Calvert in 2002. The medal is part of the Saskatchewan Honours Program that includes the Saskatchewan Order of Merit and the Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal. The provincial Office of Protocol and Honours administers the program in close co-operation with the Saskatchewan Association of Chiefs of Police, Saskatchewan Firefighters Association and other agencies whose personnel are eligible for the honour.
