Saskatchewan
Destination profile
Saskatchewan is one of the Prairie Provinces of Canada, is the greatest wheat-growing region in North America. Its farmers produce about half of Canada's wheat. The province's vast wheat fields gave it the nickname Canada's Breadbasket. Railroads carry huge loads of the grain to Canadian ports for shipment to all parts of the world. The Saskatchewan Wheat Pool is one of the world's largest marketing cooperatives. Its headquarters are in Regina, the capital of the province.
The province took its name from the Saskatchewan River, named by the Cree Indians. They called the winding river Kisiskadjewan or Kis-is-ska-tche-wan, meaning fast flowing or river that turns around when it runs.
Natural attractions
Northern Saskatchewan is rocky and covered with forests and lakes. It has the largest lakes in the province. Deposits of uranium there provide almost all of Canada's uranium and help make the country the world's leading producer of uranium.
The region's valuable trees include birch, Eastern larch, fir, jack pine, poplar, and spruce. Caribou, elk, and moose roam the rugged forests. Northern pike, pickerel, trout, and whitefish swim in the sparkling lakes and streams.
