B.C. marks Queen’s 60 years Tom Fletcher Black Press
Queen Elizabeth II’s personal Canadian flag is usually flown above the B.C. legislature only during her visits, a tradition that was added to Monday to mark her 60th year on the throne. The flag was raised at the legislature at sunrise, commemorating Feb. 6, 1952 when Elizabeth II began her reign after her father King George VI died. Elizabeth II is now the longest-serving British monarch after Queen Victoria. Premier Christy Clark issued a statement congratulating the Queen on the occasion. “Her Majesty is no stranger to British Columbia,” Clark said. “She has visited more than a dozen cities, towns and communities during her four tours to our province, including in 1971 to mark the centennial anniversary of B.C. joining Confederation.” In Ottawa, Gov. Gen. David Johnston presented the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal to 60 Canadians for public service. B.C. recipients included: • Master Seaman Christopher Mark Switzer of Victoria for his contributions to the Royal Canadian Navy and local charities. • Maureen Shaw of Victoria for her leadership in occupation health and safety and education for manufacturing workers. • Darrell Fox of Vancouver for continuing the cancer research and education of his brother Terry Fox. • Lauren Woolstencroft of North Vancouver for her contribution to alpine skiing and the Paralympics.
