Vaughn Solomon Schofield, SOM SVM CD (born October 25,[citation needed] 1943) was the 21st lieutenant governor of Saskatchewan, from 2012 to 2018.[1][2] Her appointment as Lieutenant Governor was made by Governor General of Canada David Lloyd Johnston on the Constitutional advice of Prime Minister of Canada Stephen Harper on March 6, 2012, to succeed Gordon Barnhart. Solomon Schofield was sworn in on March 22, 2012 at the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan. She was the viceregal representative of Queen Elizabeth II of Canada in the Province of Saskatchewan. Solomon Schofield is a strong supporter of the Canadian Forces, and stated during her installation that the military would be her focus during her term.[3] Her affection for the Forces stemmed from her time as Provincial Chair of the Canadian Forces Liaison Council, a position she was appointed to in January 2006. Solomon Schofield is also the Honorary Colonel of 38 Artillery Tactical Group, part of 38 Canadian Brigade Group. She was formerly an Honorary Colonel of the 38 Service Battalion.[4][5]
