Saskatchewan imo, is the most beautiful province in Canada. Northern SK is incredible, the far south with the huge rocks and open plains, the best lakes in Canada, sand dunes etc. super friendly people, and better drivers than Alberta. The winters aren’t even bad, dressing warm is so easy.

nice statement dude. how about mountains and rugged terrains for long drive in Saskatchewan heavy winter because tbh I don't like cliffs & fear of heights LoL

I've been considering relocating to Saskatoon from Toronto. I've been to Saskatchewan a few times and the prairies are beautiful. The winters are long and cold but that goes for anywhere in Canada except for the west coast. I find that even though Toronto has so much going on I hardly take advantage because it's so crowded that I rather miss out than deal with the massive crowds. I feel like Saskatoon has less happening but I would likely attend more events. I always found Saskatoon a surprisingly artsy and vibrant city for its size. Canadians are known for being kind/polite but I swear people from Newfoundland and Saskatchewan are the friendliest and kindest of all Canadians. I'm still undecided between St. John's or Saskatoon. I'm part First Nations and I worry about prejudice in SK which is where I hesitate. It's something I don't worry about in Toronto since we're so diverse but have to take into consideration when thinking of moving elsewhere in the country.

Hey! Thanks so much for watching. It really is beautiful here and I know that you mean about the high population, even though I love Toronto. Saskatoon has a lot going on, especially for a city of its size which is something I really love about the city. In terms of being First Nation, I would say that Saskatchewan has a high population of people who are First Nation which is a true strength of the province, and something that I love about the Saskatchewan. I do think there is a lot more to do though in terms of reconciliation though.

Im sure this may sound silly to a person from Toronto, but a lot of those communities are very welcoming and have a great atmosphere. if anything moving to a small town CLOSE to a big city like saskatoon, just so you can still have many amenities. if you would want to i would recommend raddison, and clavet. if you are looking for a little bigger it would have to be martensville, rosthern, Warman, or Hague.

@@daryl9905 I wouldn't consider Winnipeg for a few reasons. I find the winters ultra brutal and then the bugs and extreme humidity in the warmer months isn't for me either. There's unfortunately a lot of violent crime, gang activity in Winnipeg and I have always sensed it's a bit too rough. I'm also part First Nations and I feel like out of anywhere in the country Winnipeg and Thunder Bay (where I have lived before) have a high level of prejudice towards native people. I would worry about my treatment in hospitals or if I was a victim of a crime not being treated fairly. I know housing is cheaper in Winnipeg but I dont think it would be for me. I haven't been there in close to 15 years and I was 19 when I was there, I wasn't left with a good impression but it could have gotten better since then. I have considered Saskatoon because it felt more friendly and easy going and although there is still crime, it's more so petty crime like car theft. It felt like a toned down gentler place compared to Winnipeg with a more vibrant art and food scene.

Welcome to Saskatchewan. Great video. Saskatoon only has 300,000 people but is projected to double in the next 25yrs. So it won't be tiny forever, but compared to other major cities, still quaint and small I guess. Also it's the sunniest province in Canada. Most sunny days, even in the cold -40 January. Not to mention the longest life expectancy. Just like anywhere else, there is lots to improve, but I love it . I think the roads are horrible, simply because of the extreme cold weather, off and on for 2 months, is hard on them, especially since the temps go from -40 in winter to +35 in summer. That's some bigtime fluctuation. Hopefully the provincial government will start spending some of that new oil money and potash money on our roads and infrastructure.

I am about an hour and a half from Saskatoon and an hour from Lloydminster, so I typically drive to those cities if I need to as I am in a smaller city.
