AVC’s Dr. Ian Dohoo receives his Order of Canada medal after waiting four years

In the words of Dr. Ian Dohoo, professor emeritus of epidemiology at the Atlantic Veterinary College (AVC), “it’s better late than never.”

In 2019, Dr. Dohoo was notified that he was appointed a member to the Order of Canada. He bought a suit and picked out a tie to wear to the ceremony, but then life and a global pandemic put the celebrations on hold.
