Michael McCafferty comments:
I am absolutely delighted and pleased that the Prime Minister would name Gordon Barnhart as the next Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan. Mr. Barnhart is a very remarkable and outstanding Canadian who will bring great honor and integrity to the office.

I first met Gordon Barnhart in 1979 when he was Clerk of the Saskatchewan Legislature and I was a 28 year old Research Officer at the Saskatchewan Legislature. I admire Mr. Barnhart and I am sure Saskatchewan people will come to admire our new lieutenant Governor.
