A large group of notable Canadian musicians and music industry figures were honoured as new Order of Canada recipients named by Governor General Mary Simon on June 30.

Mike Stevens has been made an Officer of the Order. He's described in the citation as "a virtuoso harmonica player, composer and author. For more than 40 years, he has entertained audiences nationally and abroad and won acclaim at the world-famous Grand Old Opry in Nashville. His music tours in Canada’s north are the subject of three documentaries that showcase his philanthropy and prodigious musical gifts.” Stevens is founder and head of the highly regarded charity ArtsCan Circle, and that work earlier landed him the Slaight Music Humanitarian Award.
