This afternoon, recipients of the Saskatchewan Protective Services Medal were honoured by Lieutenant Governor Bernadette McIntyre and Provincial Secretary Jamie Martens during a ceremony in Saskatoon.
"The Saskatchewan Protective Services Medal recognizes the most dedicated individuals in the protective services field," Martens said. "These professionals are pillars in their communities, working every day to keep Saskatchewan safe."
Recipients have 25 or more years of exemplary services in Saskatchewan in the protective services including, police, fire, federal and provincial corrections, border services, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Canadian Armed Forces, as well as mobile crisis and family violence outreach services. 149 individuals will receive this medal this year.
In addition to the medal ceremony today in Saskatoon, two previous medal ceremonies were held in Regina on October 8, 2025.
Recipients receive a circular medal surmounted by St. Edward's Crown and a certificate signed by the Lieutenant Governor, Premier, and Provincial Secretary. The medal bears the motto Qui civitatem tuentur (who guard the citizenry).
