Today, recipients of the Saskatchewan Protective Services Medal are being recognized by Lieutenant Governor Bernadette McIntyre and Provincial Secretary Jamie Martens during a pair of ceremonies in Regina.
“The medal recognizes protective services personnel who have dedicated 25 years or more of exemplary service in Saskatchewan,” Martens said. “This year, 149 individuals from communities across rural and urban Saskatchewan will be presented with this honour.”
Recipients of this award have served in a variety of protective services including but not limited to 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. In addition to the medal ceremonies today, a medal ceremony will be held in Saskatoon on October 16, 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 civitaem tuentur (who guard the citizenry).
