I've lived in Sask most of my life. I was born here. You didn't mention that Saskatchewan has 97,000 lakes with fish in them. Or that the hunting can be spectacular. At one time Saskatchewan could boast it had 47 % of the Boone & Crocket whitetail deer records in all of North America.

Couple few years ago it was almost 6 weeks straight minus 40.

Just cause you had a bad experience does not mean other people will. How dare you bash my home city. No one is forcing you to live here. You should be ashamed.

Saskatoon is a great affordable place to live, yes, and a great place to travel from. Especially considering the affordability and job opportunity supports disposable income to do so. There was no bashing here. This video was created because my viewers who watched several of my other videos where I promote the province of Saskatchewan asked me why people may not consider Saskatchewan.
