5 Dr. Dermot McLoughlin DOCTOR OF SCIENCE

Even towards the end of his medical career, as he claims he is, Dr. McLoughlin is a busy man with an impressive résumé. He is not only an associate clinical professor at the Northern Ontario School of Medicine but was also a founding member of the School’s Board of Directors. He is currently the active staff radiologist at the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre, as well as the academic director for the Oshki-Pimache-O-Win Basic Radiological Technicians Training Certificate Program.

In 1958, Dr. McLoughlin earned his Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery degrees from the National University in Ireland. After graduating, he did his residency year at Dublin’s Mater Hospital, followed by three months as a casualty officer at St. Michael’s Hospital and six as an intern at Sick Children’s Hospital, both in Dublin.

6 The Right Honourable Paul Martin DOCTOR OF LAWS

In 2003, The Right Honourable Paul Martin became Canada’s 21st prime minister, remaining so until 2006. While this accomplishment is impressive in itself, it is easy to forget that a prime minister leads a life of achievement before being sworn into office and after his or her term ends. Mr. Martin is no exception.

Mr. Martin is a graduate of the University of Toronto’s St. Michael’s College, where he received an Honours degree in History and Philosophy. He also attended U of T’s Law School and was called to the bar in 1966. Around this same time, in 1965, he married Sheila Ann Cowan.

In 1981, prior to his entry into the political arena, Mr. Martin acquired the world’s largest fleet of self- unloading vessels and offshore transhippers, The CSL Group Inc. This move was considered the most significant buyout in Canada at the time.

Mr. Martin became Canada’s minister of finance in 1993 and maintained that position until 2002. He was responsible for lifting the country’s 25-year deficit, as well as virtually all of Canada’s foreign debt, both of which had reached record highs. If this wasn’t enough, he went on to achieve five consecutive budget surpluses and restored the financial integrity of the Canada Pension Plan. Under his leadership, regulations governing the country’s financial institutions were strengthened, which gained Canada international attention as a model for sound financial regulation. In addition, 1999 saw Mr. Martin named inaugural chair of the finance ministers and central bank governors new Group of Twenty (G-20).

The Martin Aboriginal Education Initiative was the former prime minister’s brain child and aimed to see the high school drop-out rate of Aboriginal youth in Canada decline. As well, Mr. Martin and his son, David, founded the Capital for Aboriginal Prosperity and Entrepreneurship Fund, which supports growth in Aboriginal businesses, both on and off reserves.

If prime ministers are supposed to “retire” after leaving office, The Right Honourable Paul Martin may not know the meaning of the word. These days, he can be found chairing the British-Norwegian poverty and sustainable development fund for the ten-nation Congo Basin Rainforest. The fund was previously co- chaired by the late Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Wangari Maathai, and is worth $200 million.

Mr. Martin and his wife Sheila have three sons, Paul, Jamie, and David, and three grandsons, Ethan, Liam, and Finn.

7 John Mason DOCTOR OF SCIENCE

Since earning an Honours Bachelor of Science in 1975, John Mason has carried his Geology degree from Lakehead University far. His main interests, professionally and academically, are mineral deposits and Precambrian geology, for which he proudly credits Lakehead’s Geology Department and its solid curriculum.

Mr. Mason served for 36 years as regional manager of the Resident Geologists Program at the Ontario Ministry of Northern Development and Mines with the goal, among others, of attracting new exploration investment to Northwestern Ontario.

Today he works with the Thunder Bay Community Economic Development Commission where he holds the title of project manager, mining services. His focus is on mineral exploration and mining in Northwestern Ontario, with an aim to capitalize on business, job, and economic development opportunities in this region.

Outside the office, Mr. Mason’s résumé is just as impressive. He belongs to the Northwestern Ontario Prospectors Association, the Ontario Prospectors Association, the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada, and the Association of Mineral Exploration British Columbia. He is a registered professional geoscientist in the province of Ontario. As well, he chairs the Mining and Exploration Sub-Committee at Lakehead University and is a member of the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre’s Exceptional Cancer Care Fundraising Committee. An elder at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, he is the chair of a Mission and Outreach Committee which provides financial support for water well drilling by Lifewater Incorporated in impoverished countries, such as Haiti, Liberia, and Kenya.

In 2012, Mr. Mason was presented the Ontario Prospectors Award. In the same year, along with colleague Steve Demmings, he received the North American Infrastructure Strategic Project Award and the Job Creation Award, the latter while attending the American Infrastructure Leadership Forum in Denver, Colorado.

He is a confident promoter of the wealth and potential of minerals in Northwestern Ontario and firmly believes the mineral sector can be utilized to improve the quality of life for its residents.

Lakehead University is not only John Mason’s alma mater but is also where he met his wife Barbara, who attained a BA here in 1974 and an Honours Bachelor of Social Work in 1976, and with whom he celebrates 38 years of marriage and two sons, Andrew and Michael. This year Michael will receive his degree in Medicine from the Northern Ontario School of Medicine.

38 The Mace

The mace, originally a mediaeval weapon of offense in the form of a club, weighted heavily at one end, and usually made of iron, steel or brass, was designed to break through the heaviest armour. Bishops carried maces in battle, rather than swords, in order to conform to the canonical rule which forbade priests to shed blood.

The earliest ceremonial maces were carried by royal body guards known as serjeants-at-arms in formal processions of the courts of Phillip II of France, and probably Richard I of England. However, the practical purpose of discouraging attacks upon the king gradually gave way to the European love of ceremony, and as early as the 14th century maces tended to be more decorative and symbolic.

The mace has thus come to represent the authority of the body or institution which possesses it. In Canada’s Parliament, for example, a mace is carried into the House at the beginning of each session by the sergeant-at-arms. Similarly, at many Canadian universities, a mace is present at ceremonial functions to represent the ongoing authority, dignity and spirit of the university.

The official mace of Lakehead University, a gift of the Alumni Association, was designed by Ken Campbell of the Board of Education and constructed by John Butler, Senior Technician in the University’s Science Workshop.

In keeping with the responsibilities of Lakehead University, the new mace is made entirely of materials from the region of Northwestern Ontario. The head consists of a golden cluster of jack pine cones on a smooth silver hemisphere. It is surrounded by two nickel-silver rings on either side of a band of polished nickel inscribed with official insignia of Lakehead University. The base of the head is comprised of four triangular specimens of ore mined in the region: silver, gold, nickel and copper. Below the ores is a handle of silver which leads into a shaft of stainless steel surrounded by fluted bronze. Upon a narrow insert of silver is inscribed the motto of the University. The shaft ends in a boss of nickel-silver with an insert of local amethyst crystal. Each section of the shaft is separated by a small silver ring.

The mace was used for the first time in the Convocation ceremonies, Saturday, May 27, 1972. Lakehead University
