Steve Murphy receives Order of Canada

Congratulations to Steve Murphy on receiving the Order of Canada—a recognition of a lifetime spent using his voice to inform, inspire and make a difference!
For generations of Maritime families, Steve has also been synonymous with Christmas Daddies. Year after year, he has helped bring our region together in the spirit of generosity, compassion and hope, reminding us that when we come together, we can make Christmas brighter for children and families who need it most.
Steve, your contribution to Christmas Daddies—and to the Maritimes—goes far beyond the hours spent on television. You have helped make kindness part of our Christmas tradition.
This honour is so richly deserved. We are incredibly proud to call you one of our own. Congratulations, Steve, on being appointed to the Order of Canada
