Georges Henri Goguen is being recognized for his role as a pioneer of modern art in Acadia and for his dedication and promotion of visual arts.

Former premier Camille Henri Theriault is receiving the honour for his contributions as a parliamentarian in New Brunswick and his achievements in public governance.

The Order of Canada is presented by the Governor General and it honours individuals who help to shape society through service, ideas and compassion.
