Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal
Has someone you know made contributions to Canada, Saskatchewan, or the City of Humboldt? Recognize these contributions with the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal.
The Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal (Saskatchewan) is being created to celebrate the 70th anniversary year of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s Accession to the Throne, which began on February 6, 2022. The medal is a tangible way for the province of Saskatchewan to honour Her Majesty for her service to Canada. A total of 7,000 medals will be awarded at ceremonies held throughout the province during the Platinum Jubilee year. The medal program will be the focus of the Government of Saskatchewan’s Jubilee year commemorations.
Her Majesty The Queen approved the design of the medal in May 2022. Permission has been sought from the Office of the Governor General of Canada to have this medal included in the Order of Precedence with the other commemorative medals of the Canadian Honours System.
Eligibility: As with all previous Canadian commemorative medals, the criteria for the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal (Saskatchewan) is broad. Recipients should be of all ages, from all walks of life, provided that they have made a contribution to society.
Three minimum criteria for the medal recipients:
- They are a resident of Saskatchewan or have a link to Saskatchewan (at the time of the rant of the medal);
- They have made a contribution to Canada, Saskatchewan, or to a particular region or community; and
- They were alive on February 6, 2022, the 70th anniversary of Her Majesty’s accession to the throne.
