A rock-star economist. Two actual rock stars who have used their voices for advocacy. And the longtime voice of Hockey Night in Canada.
The four — Mark Carney, the former governor of the Bank of Canada, hockey play-by-play icon Bob Cole, and musical couple Chantal Kreviazuk and Raine Maida — are among the 95 Canadians to be invested in the Order of Canada. Also on the list are several Ottawa residents, including a noted legal mind and a dentist who helps the city’s homeless.
Here are some of the notable names nationally and locally among this year’s appointments:
Mark Carney
When Carney became governor of the Bank of Canada in 2008, he was the youngest Canadian to hold the position. Carney helped steer the bank and the country through worst of the economic crisis, mitigating the damage to Canada. In 2012, Carney became the first non-Briton to be named governor of the Bank of England.

Chantal Kreviazuk and Raine Maida
Kreviazuk made her musical mark through a solo career. Maida is known as the frontman for Our Lady Peace, and through his solo career. But the married couple are also vocal advocates for the charity War Child, which helps communities rebuild from the ashes of war.
Wally Buono
Buono patrolled the sidelines in the Canadian Football League as the head coach for two teams: the Calgary Stampeders and then the B.C. Lions. When he retired from coaching in 2011, he had spent 22 seasons as a head coach and amassed a CFL record 254 wins and five Grey Cup victories.

Bob Cole
The 81-year-old from Newfoundland dropped off a demo tape to Foster Hewitt in 1960 to get some broadcasting pointers. Cole eventually replaced Hewitt on Hockey Night in Canada, becoming one of the most well-known voices on hockey game broadcasts. In 1996, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Sheldon Kennedy
The former NHL player is best known for going public about the abuse he suffered at the hands of a former coach, Graham James. He has been an advocate for combating child abuse, and he has testified multiple times before MPs, and before the U.S. Senate.

Peter Milliken
Milliken served as Speaker of the House of Commons for more than a decade. He broke more tie votes than any Speaker before him, and his rulings are among the most notable in recent history, including a contempt of Parliament decision that paved the way for the 2011 election.

Donald McRae
The University of Ottawa law professor — and the one-time dean of the law school — will be invested as a companion, the highest honour in the Order of Canada, for his work with provincial and federal governments, as well as international bodies on maritime law.
Peter Calamai
A former editorial page editor for the Citizen, Calamai spent four decades working in daily news. He spent 15 years as a science writer and has promoted science as a public good and promoted adult literacy.
Christina Cameron
Cameron spent 35 years in various leadership positions in Parks Canada, including a stint as director general of national historic sites. She also spent time at the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada and at UNESCO’s World Heritage Convention, including work on preserving historic canals.

Tim Cook
The “hybrid historian,” as he’s been dubbed, is one of the country’s authoritative voices on the First World War. This past year he put out the first of two volumes looking at Canada’s role in the Second World War. By day, the 42-year-old is the Great War Historian at the Canadian War Museum and a Carleton University professor.

John Crichton
Crichton started out his career in commercial aviation in 1969 as a pilot. In 1997, he became the founding chief executive of NAV CANADA when the organization took over Canada’s civil air navigation services from the federal government. In 2011, Crichton was inducted into the country’s Aviation Hall of Fame.
Tom Harle
After spending a decade volunteering his dental skills in some of the poorest areas of the world, Harle focused his energy locally in 2007. That year, he opened the Homeless Dental Clinic in the Ottawa Mission, providing free dental services to Ottawa’s homeless. The centre has served thousands of clients, and in 2011 won the Canadian Dental Association’s Oral Health Promotion Award.
Keith MacLellan
MacLellan has been a driving force behind the advances in rural medicine in Canada, a role he plays in addition to his day job as a small-town family physician. He was also instrumental in the creation of the Society of Rural Physicians of Canada, the national voice for doctors who serve the roughly nine million Canadians who live in rural areas.
John McAvity
McAvity is best known for his long-standing role as executive director of the Canadian Museums Association. He has lobbied the government to invest in preserving the country’s cultural heritage and, according to his online biography, has an interest in “collecting odd antiques such as fire hydrants and hardware.”
Dan Needles
Imagine leaving a swanky Bay Street job for the life of a farmer. If you can’t, just watch any of the one-man plays Needles has written in the popular Wingfield Farm series, which has been playing across Canada and the United States for almost 30 years. He has also been a champion for the dramatic arts outside of Canada’s major centres.
