Yesterday, Governor General Mary Simon made 88 new appointments to the Order of Canada, including one companion, 24 officers, and 63 members.
“Members of the Order of Canada are builders of hope for a better future. Each in their own way, they broaden the realm of possibilities and inspire others to continue pushing its boundaries,”
A couple of Maritimers made the list including Steve Murphy! Steve has been a fixture and legend in media across the Maritimes for more than four decades.
He stepped down from the news desk in 2021 but is still active in the community and still involved with Christmas Daddies and IWK telethons.
The magic of Christmas Daddies!
We are super excited for the 61st Annual Christmas Daddies Telethon on Saturday, Dec 7th from 11 am – 6 pm (Atlantic) with a livestream available on https://t.co/uZVZSMKTQA

Canada, you’ve given me more than I could ever repay. Thank you for this incredible honor—I promise to use my powers for good… and general whimsy. @GGCanada https://t.co/Phhkn56RJg
