On October 12, Queen's professor emeritus Art McDonald was invested in the Order of Nova Scotia. The honour came in recognition of his lifetime of scientific achievement and his role as an "ambassador of Canadian science, who has not lost touch with his Nova Scotia roots."

Dr. McDonald was one of five prominent Nova Scotians invested in the Order, in a ceremony at Province House led by the Lieutenant Governor of Nova Scotia, Brigadier-General The Honourable J.J. Grant. Other recipients included self-taught paleontologist Donald Reid, Mi'kmaq elder Douglas Knockwood, bioethicist Francoise Baylis and puppet creator Jim Morrow.
