==Awards and honours== Tremblay has received numerous awards in recognition of his work. These include the ''Prix Victor-Morin'' (1974), the ''Prix France-Québec'' (1984), the [[Floyd S. Chalmers Canadian Play Awards|Chalmers Award]] (1986) and the [[Molson Prize]] (1994). He received the Lieutenant-Governor's award for Ontario in 1976 and 1977. Tremblay was named the "Montréalais le plus remarquable des deux dernières décennies dans le domaine du théâtre" (the most remarkable Montrealer of the past two decades in theatre) (1978). In 1991 he was appointed ''Officier de l'Ordre de France,'' and in the same year, ''Chevalier de [[National Order of Quebec|l'Ordre National du Québec]].'' He is also a recipient of the ''Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres de France'' (1994). In 1999, Tremblay received a [[Governor General's Performing Arts Award]], Canada's highest honour in the performing arts.<ref>{{cite web|title=Michel Tremblay biography|url=http://ggpaa.ca/award-recipients/1999/tremblay-michel.aspx|publisher=Governor General's Performing Arts Awards Foundation|access-date=4 February 2015}}</ref> This produced controversy when several well-known Quebec nationalists suggested that he should refuse the award. While he did not do this, he did admit, for the first time, that he had refused the [[Order of Canada]] in 1990. In 2000, ''Encore une fois, si vous le permettez'' (''For The Pleasure of Seeing Her Again'') won a Chalmers Award and a [[Dora Mavor Moore Award]].<ref>[http://www.canadiantheatre.com/dict.pl?term=Michel%20Tremblay Tremblay, Michel] ''Canadian Theatre Encyclopedia'' 2005-02-04</ref> In 2024, a plaza-playground in the Plateau-Mont-Royal was named Place de l'Ange-Cornu in honour of Tremblay's book ''Un ange cornu avec des ailes de tôle''.<ref>{{cite web |author1=Ville de Montréal |title=Place de l'Ange-Cornu |url=https://montreal.ca/lieux/place-de-lange-cornu |website=montreal.ca |access-date=15 October 2024 |language=fr |date=9 October 2024}}</ref>
