Consulting Engineering Companies of Saskatchewan Awards of Distinction

Mr. Jenson: — Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Engineers play a vital role across our province, and on November 15th I had the pleasure of attending the Association of Consulting Engineering Companies of Saskatchewan 2022 Awards of Distinction in Saskatoon.

Mr. Speaker, among the highlights of the night was the prestigious Lieutenant Governor’s Meritorious Achievement Award presented to Dave Kent, who was recognized for his 45 years of service in the engineering field. Leon Botham was the recipient of the Mentor Award, while Rahim Ahmad was named young professional of the year. And, Mr. Speaker, the firm of Allnorth Consultants Limited was awarded the 2022 Consulting Engineer of the Year as presented by the Ministry of Highways.

Mr. Speaker, the 2022 Brian Eckel Awards recognized several engineering firms for their excellence in categories such as municipal infrastructure and water resources, transportation, environmental and project management, and buildings. The winners included Associated Engineering, AECOM Canada Ltd., WSP Canada, CIMA [Chartered Institute of Management Accountants] Canada, BCL Engineering, Stantec Consulting, P. Machibroda Engineering, Pinter & Associates, and SAL Engineering.

Mr. Speaker, the work engineers do have a big impact on everything we do, from the glass of water out of your tap, to the roads we drive on, to the buildings we work in, and so much more.

Mr. Speaker, it’s with great pride that our government congratulates all of this year’s ACEC [Association of Consulting Engineering Companies] of Saskatchewan award winners, and thank them for all the outstanding services they provide to the people of our province.
