Canada’s 21st Prime Minister, Paul Martin, will be presented with an honorary degree at Brandon University’s spring convocation.
Martin served as Prime Minister from 2003 to 2006 and will be given an honorary Doctor of Laws degree at the morning convocation ceremony at BU on Friday, May 27.
“Mr. Martin is one of Canada’s leading advocates of Indigenous education which represents a significant focus and priority for Brandon University,” BU’s President and Vice-Chancellor Gervan Fearon said, in a statement.
BU presents individuals with honorary degrees for their service to the university or society; accomplishments in professional life or public service; or the advancement of knowledge through research or teaching.
