Frank Lindsay Bastedo

Frank Lindsay Bastedo (September 10, 1886 – February 15, 1973), was a Canadian lawyer who served as the 11th lieutenant governor of Saskatchewan, from 1958 to 1963. He is notable for being the last Canadian vice-regal representatives to reserve royal assent for a legislative bill, referring it to the federal government for decision.

He was a descendant of Peter McMicking (1731–1823), a United Empire Loyalist, and also with Spanish ancestral origins. Bastedo earned his law degree from the University of Toronto in 1909. He moved to Regina two years later to join a law firm there. He was appointed King's Counsel in 1927.

A Conservative by party, he headed Regina's Conservative Association from 1921 to 1924 but did not seek the party's nomination for elected office. This was the first time a lieutenant-governor had reserved a bill for federal consideration since 1937, when Lieutenant-Governor of Alberta John C. Bowen reserved three bills proposed by the Social Credit government of William Aberhart as unconstitutional. Bastedo's constitutional advisors, however, did not share his assessment and advised him to grant royal assent.
