The 31 S T Annual
THE 31ST ANNUAL NOVEMBER 10, 2020 NOVEMBER 10, 2020 MASTER OF CEREMONIES Mary Taylor-Ash CEO Tourism Saskatchewan PRESENTER Norm Beug Chair Tourism Saskatchewan Board of Directors 2 NOVEMBER 10, 2020 SASKATCHEWAN TOURISM AWARDS OF EXCELLENCE More than 30 years ago, Saskatchewan’s tourism sector began paying special tribute to leadership and achievement in the industry – to businesses and individuals who made exceptional contributions to tourism and demonstrated that success and fulfilment come with being true to your dreams, proud of your home and eager to treat guests to remarkable Saskatchewan experiences. The Saskatchewan Tourism Awards of Excellence Gala has become a yearly showcase of achievement, bringing together representatives from every corner of the province and from a diverse range of businesses and attractions to celebrate the accomplishments of their colleagues in the industry. Originally scheduled to take place on April 2 in Regina, the 31st annual event was cancelled, along with the HOST Saskatchewan Conference, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With the cancellation of both industry gatherings, the announcement of the 12 Saskatchewan Tourism Awards of Excellence recipients and three Tourism Builders was postponed. Through the use of technology and adoption of a new virtual format, members of Saskatchewan’s tourism industry are now able to gather from afar to honour those outstanding businesses and people who have gone above and beyond to deliver superior service and experiences. Join the celebration as the Saskatchewan Tourism Awards of Excellence shine a spotlight on the commitment and hard work of veteran operators, as well as the innovative spirit of young entrepreneurs, and broaden understanding of efforts that yield success and, ultimately, position Saskatchewan as a more inviting and competitive destination. -

Charting a Path to Economic Reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples
April 2019 Charting a Path to Economic Reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples This commentary is based on a speech given by Blaine Favel to the Macdonald-Laurier Institute’s Annual Dinner on February 20, 2019. Blaine Favel To the elder who said tonight’s invocation, thank you. I also acknowledge that we are on the traditional territory of the Algonquin Nation and I pay their people homage and respect. I would like to thank the organizers for the invitation to speak tonight. The purpose of my speech is two- fold – on how colonialist policies forced poverty upon my people, and to declare the path to economic reconciliation begins by recognizing our ancient relationship and stewardship over the land. There may be many paths to reconciliation but at its bare bones, to me, “reconciliation means that Indigenous people should not be the poorest people in lands that belong to us.” I am from the Poundmaker Cree Nation and was raised on the reserve with my father and grandfather, both chiefs until they passed – with my grandfather being our nation’s last “life-time” chief. My great-grandfather Basile was Chief Poundmaker Headman at the signing of treaty and fought in the Battle of Cut Knife in 1885. Following the successful defence of our nation against the Canadian militia, our chief was imprisoned, as was my grandfather and we were deprived of a chief until 1919, and were administered by the war office. The author of this document has worked independently and is solely responsible for the views presented here.

The Crown in the Provinces: Canada's Compound Monarchy
THE CROWN IN THE PROVINCES: CANADA’S COMPOUND MONARCHY Michael Jackson and Lynda Haverstock1 Canada: a “compound monarchy” (Smith, D.E., 1995, 12). This succinct phrase by David E. Smith, dean of Canadian scholars of the Crown, neatly sums up a key dimension of the constitutional monarchy in Canada. We contend that the Crown is an institution belonging jointly to the central and provincial governments and that it is crucial to the co-sovereign status of the provinces in Confederation. It is, therefore, of vital interest to the Province of Quebec and holds promise for First Nations’ governance. This aspect of our nation’s constitutional monarchy merits far more examination by scholars and policy-makers than it has received. Attention to the Crown in Canada – and attention there has recently been – has focused primarily on the Office of the Governor General. In part, this stems from a spotlight on the federal vice-regal reserve powers of dissolution and prorogation in 2008 and 2009 (Russell and Sossin, 2009). In addition, there has been debate in the media about the appropriateness of using the term “Head of State” in reference to the Governor General. In most cases, those who call for the end of the monarchy ignore its vital provincial dimension. Few commentators have drawn attention to the provincial Crown and the Lieutenant Governors who embody it; among those few are Michael Valpy and Ian Holloway (Valpy 2009). The present paper will discuss what we call the “provincial Crown” and how it evolved. By doing so, we will make the case that it is integral to how Canada has evolved as a fascinating federation and that to ignore its significance diminishes thoughtful discourse on the nation’s strengths. -

She attended the University of Saskatchewan, graduating with a B.A. (1949), then M.A. (1951) in Physics.

She was a professor of Oncology at the U of S, and eventually the Director of Physics services at the Saskatoon Cancer Clinic, from which she retired in 1986. Her life is composed of many firsts. She was the first woman to become a member of the Atomic Energy Control Board of Canada (1973). First female chancellor at the U of S (1986-1989) , first Saskatchewan Lieutenant Governor (1988-1994), and played in the first Diamond ‘D’ Championships (1961), which was the national curling tournament for women, which eventually became the Scotties Tournament of Hearts.

She was awarded the Saskatchewan Order of Merit (1986), made an Officer of the Order of Canada (1987), and was inducted into the Canadian Medical Hall of Fame (2009). -
Montague Submission Redacted.Pdf
Appendix 10 City of Saskatoon Naming Advisory Committee Community Services Qepartment, Planning &Development Branch 222 — 3~d Avenue North Saskatoon, Saskatchewan S7K 015 August 5, 2Q19 Dear Committee Members: Re: (Donald) Murray Montague (March, 1037 —April, 2010) It is my pleasure to add my name to those who have submitted Murray Montague for consideration of Street Naming in our fine city. Although Murray has passed away, his enduring legacy warrants ongoing acknowledgement. Many came to know this amiable, highly civilized man because of his years as Deputy Chief of the Saskatoon Police Service. One of his inspiring contributions was implementing the School Safety Program, which still exists. I first met Murray when he was an Aide de Camp to Her Honour Sylvia Fedoruk. This important role in service of the Crown is only filled by those considered outstanding in one of the three arms of the military, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and the Police Services. By the time I had become Lieutenant Governor, Murray had been the Principal Driver for His Honour Jack Wiebe, a position he continued for six and a half years with me. This individual was the consummate gentleman, a kind, thoughtful professional who was well- read and articulate. He was deeply admired because of his demeanor. In 2004, I presented him with the Vice-Regal Commendation for his outstanding devotion and exemplary service. A Lieutenant Governor is permitted to give only one such award in his/her tenure and Murray Montague was my choice. I would be mast grateful if the Committee saw fit to recognize this special citizen of Saskatoon in a permanent way.
