The federal
riding of Saskatoon-Wanuskewin consists of the northwest quadrant of
Saskatoon and extends north in the direction of Prince Albert and
northwest in the direction of North Battleford (see the
Elections
Canada riding map).
The population of our riding is 75,955 and the number of listed
electors is 53,862.
The name Wanuskewin means “seeking
peace of mind.” The Northern Plains Indians visited the Wanuskewin
site on a regular basis over thousands of years. The protected
valley where Opamihaw Creek meets the South Saskatchewan River was
an ideal campsite, providing shelter from winter winds, and abundant
supplies of food, plants, water, and wood. Wanuskewin is
representative of the five Indian tribes of Saskatchewan: Nakota,
Saulteaux, Cree, Dene, and Dakota.
