A total of 88 Canadians have been nominated for the Order of Canada, the country's second-highest honour. Among them is Canadian-American Hollywood actor Ryan Reynolds, who was also awarded the Order of British Columbia in November.

"The recipients of the Order of Canada are the creators of a better future for Canada," Governor General Mary Simon said in a news release. "Each of them has made a valuable contribution in their field."

This year's list includes scientists such as internationally recognized E. coli expert Carlton Giles, pediatric neuro-oncology researcher Nada Zabado, and speech-language pathologist Aura Kagan.

The nominees will be invited to a ceremony to receive the Order of Canada, the date of which will be announced by the Governor General's office.
