Description
Strange Saskatchewan is as much history as a fascinating walk through what makes this great province and its people so compelling. Strange Saskatchewan weaves our province’s history into an often eclectic tapestry of farming, football and passions. Who knew that this land-locked province was named after a body of water, or that the offence and defense of the 1945 Roughriders had so few jerseys that they had to share. Come on along with us, it will be a wonderful ride.
