Getting ready for winter at the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo; Admission by donation begins November 1
November 1, 2024 - 8:00am
The fun doesn’t stop just because the temperature drops! Admission to the Zoo is by donation from November 1 to March 31 each year. Saskatchewan winters typically bring snow and cold temperatures prompting many animals at the Zoo to demonstrate their natural adaptations to handle the coldest months of the year.
The snow leopard, Arctic wolves, Canada lynx and caribou are among some of the many animals that will be embracing the colder temperatures while other zoo animals like the zebras, dingoes and ring-tailed lemurs will be relocating to indoor habitats until warmer temperatures return.
Grizzly bears Mistaya and Koda are getting ready to sleep away the cold winter days and the black-tailed prairie dogs are expected to start hibernation in the coming weeks.
The Café and Gift Shop at the Zoo are closed for the season.
The Fishing Pond at the Forestry Farm Park is closed for the season and will reopen next spring.
The Zoo is open daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and the Forestry Farm Park is open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., visit saskatoon.ca/zoo for more information or to plan your next visit.

Pilot washroom trailer closes October 31
October 30, 2024 - 8:00am
The piloted washroom trailer located at the site of the Central Urban Métis Federation (CUMFI) office at 315 Avenue M South will be closed for the season on October 31.
The washroom trailer officially opened on August 27 and has been accessed over 14,304 times throughout the pilot by people of all ages. The trailer was staffed 24/7 by the Saskatoon Tribal Council (STC) Sawēyihtotān Program, providing a welcoming and safe place. People using this washroom location could use the facilities to wash up, rinse their clothes, have a snack along with a bottle of water or coffee. Sawēyihtotān Outreach also offered additional assistance with accessing emergency shelter and provided transportation and advocacy to connect individuals with other necessary resources.
“This pilot project has been a very positive experience for the City, Sawēyihtotān, CUMFI and those using the facility,” says Pamela Goulden McLeod, Director of the Saskatoon Emergency Management Organization. “What this project has done is provide a safe place for people to come have a sense of belonging while being treated with dignity and respect. It also acted as an informal navigation centre for anyone who looking for help, shelter and stability.”
The facility was fully operational for the entire time it was open, with only minor plumbing repairs needed, which were associated with the high volume of users. There was no intentional damage done to the washrooms at any time.
“The feedback we’ve received from community partners and users has been overwhelmingly positive. The facility and partnership model has proven to be a much-needed resource, and the trailer has been a great success story for our community,” says Goulden McLeod. “We extend our thanks to CUMFI for hosting the washroom trailer, to Sawēyihtotān for staffing the trailer location, to the Saskatoon Friendship Inn for providing daily sandwiches and for all of the residents, businesses and partners who provided their support.”
A total of $700,000 was allocated to the project from the City’s Reserve for Capital Expenditures. To date, approximately $506,300 has been spent on the washroom which includes purchase of and modifications to the trailer, staffing, supplies and maintenance. The used trailer itself cost just under $52,000 to purchase.

It’s mid-October and time to get ready to make your voting plans for this fall’s 2024 Civic Election. Eligible voters in Saskatoon, you’ll vote for Mayor, City Councillors and Public and Separate School Board Trustees for the next four-year term on Wednesday, November 13, 2024.
Elections Saskatoon will use a Voters List for this fall’s civic election for the first time since 1988. The Voters List is a list of eligible, registered voters in Saskatoon. The Voters List makes it easier to verify a voter’s identity, and its use ensures only eligible voters vote once.
Pre-register for the Voters List to help make your voting experience faster and more efficient when you go to vote, either at early voting opportunities or on Election Day. We encourage all eligible voters to get ready to vote by pre-registering, here’s how:
Go Online: Visit saskatoon.ca/voterlookup before tomorrow's deadline, October 22, 2024:
You can also have your information on the Voters List updated via these options:
Besides making sure you’re registered, and your voter information is correct, it’s important that all voters, regardless of having children in the school system, indicate (or update) the school division you support. This is to ensure you receive the correct ballot when you go to vote. To note, only voters who own assessable property, but do not reside in Saskatoon, will select No School Support when they register for the Voters List.
Important to know: if you don’t get a chance to check, confirm or update the Voters List before October 22, 2024, via your available options (online, email, phone, or in person) - not to worry! All eligible voters will be able to register at the voting location they attend either at an early voting opportunity or on Election Day. A Voter Registration Form will need to be filled out.
Key upcoming dates
The City’s website, saskatoon.ca/vote2024, remains your trusted source for all 2024 Civic Election information, including details on who can vote, when to vote and where to vote, ID requirements for voting, advance voting, special polls and more. Civic election information is easy to find via the election quick links on the homepage of saskatoon.ca. Election questions? Call 306-657-VOTE (8683).

City and Muskeg Lake Cree Nation sign new Urban Reserve Agreements
October 16, 2024 - 1:30pm
- municipal and police services the City will provide;
- service fees Muskeg Lake Cree Nation will pay the City in lieu of property taxes; and,
- compatible land-use and development standards.
The City and Muskeg Lake Cree Nation have cleared a path to designate the First Nation’s land at 143 Aspen Place as an urban reserve. The site is located adjacent to Asimakaniseekan Askiy urban reserve, located in Sutherland. This urban reserve will become Muskeg Lake Cree Nation’s 3rd urban reserve in Saskatoon. The other is Creeway West Petro Canada, located on 22nd Street West.
Muskeg Lake Cree Nation has a long-standing relationship with the City of Saskatoon, dating back to establishing their first urban reserve, Asimakaniseekan Askiy in 1988, which was the first commercial urban reserve in Canada (and Saskatoon). Its success has been the foundation of those that have been created since. Today, it is currently home to 50 businesses and over 750 employees.
Saskatoon Mayor Charlie Clark and Muskeg Lake Cree Nation Chief Kelly Wolfe, along with the Council of Muskeg Lake Cree Nation and Saskatoon Board of Police Commissioners Chair, Shirley Greyeyes, today signed urban reserve agreements during a special signing ceremony.
"The original urban reserve agreement between Muskeg Lake Cree Nation and Saskatoon in 1988 was historic for Canada and helped clear a pathway for urban reserves to be created across the country since. Muskeg Lake Cree Nation and the City of Saskatoon have seen tremendous benefits from this partnership and friendship ever since. Today we build on this relationship by signing our third urban reserve agreement, to create opportunities for both of our communities for generations to come." says Mayor Charlie Clark.
At its regularly scheduled meeting on September 25, 2024, City Council approved the Municipal Services and Compatibility Agreement negotiated with Muskeg Lake Cree Nation. The Saskatoon Board of Police Commissioners also approved the Police Services Agreement at their regularly scheduled meeting on September 19, 2024. These agreements fulfill the municipal requirements for urban reserve designation.
The agreements address:
“Our partnership with the City of Saskatoon continues to grow as we look toward the future. At Muskeg Lake, we always make decisions with the next seven generations in mind, ensuring that what we build today will benefit our children, grandchildren, and all those who come after us,” says Muskeg Lake Cree Nation Chief Kelly Wolfe.
“By working together with the City, we’re not only focused on expanding our urban reserve and creating economic opportunities but also on addressing the well-being of our communities. Our goals include strengthening education, improving infrastructure, and preserving our culture to create a brighter future for everyone.”
Decisions on reserve designation are made by the federal government. Once the property is designated as a reserve, it will become the eleventh urban reserve in Saskatoon. When a property transfers to reserve status, it is no longer under City jurisdiction.
For more information on urban reserves, please visit saskatoon.ca/urbanreserves.
About Muskeg Lake Cree Nation
Muskeg Lake Cree Nation is a member of the Saskatoon Tribal Council, whose home reserve is located in central Saskatchewan, 93 kilometres north of Saskatoon, and is bordered by the towns of Marcelin, Leask and Blaine Lake. It is accessible via Highways 40, 12 and 3A. A signatory to Treaty No. 6, with approximately 2,500 members, around 450 reside on the home reserve, while the remainder live in other communities off reserve, throughout the province, including several members living in Saskatoon.
Muskeg Lake Cree Nation is a Plains Cree band that owns and manages a total of 35,123 acres in urban and rural lands. These lands are used for community living, agriculture, recreation and business.
As a community, people of Muskeg Lake Cree Nation are proud of their Cree language, culture and heritage. Veterans from Muskeg Lake Cree Nation have played a significant role in how the community has developed and are honoured for their ongoing service and contributions.
