As one of this year's eight inductees, the late Raymond Burr was honoured with the Canadian Legends Award sponsored by Cineplex Entertainment and Universal Studios Canada. The Legends Award is given posthumously to Canadian pioneers in film and television, music, sport, arts and innovation.
“This year's inductees are a perfect illustration of what the Canada Honours represent,” explained Peter Soumalias, CEO and President of Canada's Walk of Fame. "Their achievements are truly astounding and continue to resonate throughout the country and around the world."
