The Government of Saskatchewan has proclaimed Monday, Sept. 19, as a day in tribute and commemoration of Queen Elizabeth II.
"Her late Majesty's seven decades of selfless public service is an honourable legacy," Premier Scott Moe said. "We will pay tribute to her incredible dedication and commemorate her 70-year reign in a memorial service in our capital city — the Queen City."
Books of condolence continue to be available for the public at the Legislative Building, Government House, at City Halls in Regina and Saskatoon, as well as the website of the Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan. A memorial service is set for 7 p.m. on Sept. 19, at St. Paul’s Anglican Cathedral in Regina.
Flags in the province will remain at half-mast for Her late Majesty until sunset on that date.
While Sept. 19 is being proclaimed to honour Queen Elizabeth II, it has not been designated as a provincial public statutory holiday.
