One of the recent recipients of the Order of Ontario was taken back when learning she was part of the 2025 class.
Dr. Jamaica Cass was one of 30 named to Order on Tuesday by Lieutenant Governor Edith Dumont. Cass is a primary care physician in Tyendinaga and a director with the health education program in the faculty of health sciences at Queen’s University.
She says news of her appointment came as a bit of a surprise.
