Thomas Molloy, Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan May it Please Your Honour: I respectfully submit the Annual Report of the Government House Foundation for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018. The Honourable Ken Cheveldayoff Minister Responsible The Foundation supports Government House by raising funds to invest into the for the Provincial preservation of this important Provincial Heritage Property and National Capital Commission Historic Site. The Honourable Ken Cheveldayoff Minister Responsible for the Provincial Capital Commission The Honourable Ken Cheveldayoff Minister of Central Services Minister Responsible for the Provincial Capital Commission Legislative Building Regina SK S4S 0B3 Dear Mr. Cheveldayoff: It is my privilege to submit the annual report of the Government House Foundation for the year ending March 31, 2018. During 2016-2017, the trustees had engaged a consulting firm to consider options for fundraising. The consultant’s report, submitted to the board in March 2017, advised against holding a capital campaign at this time. It recommended instead a number of measures to increase community awareness of Government House and the Foundation and to develop the Foundation’s organizational structure, before embarking on further fund-raising activities. Accordingly, in 2017-2018 the Foundation, with the help of a professional facilitator, reviewed its mandate, structure, goals and strategic priorities. A fund-raising committee of the board assessed the potential and the means for attracting donations towards the capital needs of Government House. The Foundation also initiated quarterly meetings with the other partners in Government House – the Government House Historical Society, the Office of the Lieutenant Governor, and the Provincial Capital Commission – to coordinate activities on behalf of the House and offer mutual support.

  • A Last-Year Student Awarded a Major National Grant
    Press Release For immediate publication A last-year student awarded a major national grant Montréal, September 30, 2016 — L’École supérieure de ballet du Québec is proud to announce that Étienne Gagnon-Delorme, a senior in its professional program, is the recipient of the Hnatyshyn Foundation’s grant for Dance. This $10,000 grant was awarded by a jury consisting of experts from Canada’s arts community. Established by the late Right Honourable Ramon John Hnatyshyn, the twenty-fourth Governor-General of Canada, the Hnatyshyn Foundation invests in and supports, at the most fundamental level, “the development of world-class artists of tomorrow.” “Étienne is an extremely gifted dancer and we’ve had the pleasure of working with him on the discovery of his many talents,” stated Anik Bissonnette, Artistic Director of l’École supérieure de ballet du Québec. She went on to add: “This well-deserved grant is the result of several years of passion, sustained effort, and a peerless work ethic. We are delighted that he has been recognized in this way by the Hnatyshyn Foundation.” Admitted to l’École supérieure’s professional dance program in 2013, Étienne has distinguished himself as both a performer and a choreographer. Last year, he joined the Grands Ballets Canadiens for the Nutcracker and, this fall, for Jean-Christophe Maillot’s Romeo & Juliet. About Anik Bissonnette As principal dancer of Montréal’s Grands Ballets Canadiens for close to 17 years, Anik Bissonnette distinguished herself both at home and abroad, receiving critical acclaim for her classical technique as well as her great musical sensibility.

  • May 14, 2020 the Honourable Scott Moe Premier of Saskatchewan Room 226, 2405 Legislative Drive Regina, Saskatchewan CANADA S4S 0
    May 14, 2020 The Honourable Scott Moe Premier of Saskatchewan Room 226, 2405 Legislative Drive Regina, Saskatchewan CANADA S4S 0B3 Dear Mr. Moe, Warm greetings. Out of concern for our fellow citizens and neighbours, faith groups and houses of worship in Saskatchewan showed initiative and leadership in addressing the COVID-19 situation, suspending their activities and closing their doors before they were required to do so. The current Re-open Saskatchewan plan addresses commerce and recreation but does not address spiritual gatherings. There are increasing tensions within our communities, and pressure on leaders to make decisions about what we can and cannot do at the present. These questions and decisions go beyond permission to gather up to ten people in a worship space. We are concerned that without clear communication and directives there will be well-intentioned but misguided decisions at the local level as well as outright rogue behaviour. Faith is an important aspect of the Saskatchewan community. Census figures indicate that 75% of Saskatchewan residents consciously affiliate with a religious or spiritual tradition. For many, religious observance is a daily or weekly occurrence, thus necessitating some consideration of religious gatherings within the Re-Open Saskatchewan plan. With this in mind, Saskatchewan faith leaders recently gathered in consultation. We represent diverse traditions, including the Buddhist, Hindu, Jewish, Mormon, Muslim, and Unitarian communities, and the following Christian churches: Alliance, Anglican, Baptist, Evangelical, Lutheran (ELCIC and LCC), Mennonite, Pentecostal, Presbyterian, Roman Catholic, Ukrainian Catholic, and the United Church of Canada. We represent communities that are large and small, urban and rural.
