Saskatchewan Lieutenant Governor Russ Mirasty has announced the creation of the Queen Elizabeth the Second Platinum Jubilee Medal. The new commemorative medal is being created to celebrate the 70th anniversary of Her Majesty’s accession to the throne.
Mirasty explains the medal program will honour significant contributions and achievements throughout Saskatchewan during this unprecedented anniversary year noting between June 2022 and February 2023 seven thousand medals will be awarded. He adds as we celebrate Her Majesty’s 70 years of extraordinary services as Queen of Canada and Head of the Commonwealth this commemorative medal enables us to pay tribute to the Queen’s devotion of duty by recognizing Saskatchewan people who have also made service a priority pointing out he looks forward to celebrating the generous and impressive people of the province at medal ceremonies across Saskatchewan.
