The big, flat, rectangle in the middle of Canada with a name that anyone who's not from Saskatchewan pronounces wrong. For future reference--"Sas-KATCH-ew-un" OR "Sas-KATCH-ew-in" OR "Sas-KATCH-ew-en" is acceptable. . .but not not not Sas-katch-ew-WAAAAAN. If you say it that way, it just screams you're from Ontario. Or Texas.
Suffer from paralyzing claustrophobia? Well, you've come to the right place Land of Living Skies, as our license plates say, is pretty accurate--that's pretty much all that's living. Our trees are generally stick thin and only look alive for four out of twelve months. Well, okay, so we're alive for a third of the year. That ain't half bad, eh?
NDP government that was elected by mostly farmers. I don't understand it, either.
The biggest city in Saskatchewan is Saskatoon, which, nope, is not the capital, even though it is home to a relatively adequate school, the University of Saskatchewan. Surprising, really.
The capital city of Saskatchewan is the city that rhymes with fun--Regina. A city that is composed of three quarters flatness, and one quarter man-made lake full of goose crap. It's a pretty exciting place to be.
Saskatchewan is full of names like Moose Jaw and Swift Current and Prince Albert and North Battleford. Apparently Saskatchewan has a thing for two-worded names. Except the original Cree is probably one long word that is slowly being forgotten along with the majority of their culture. Unfortunately.
Speaking of unfortunately, there is an unfortunate amount of racism in Saskatchewan. But hey, teach the world to sing in perfect harmony, and I'm sure the province can continue to turn a blind eye to the racism and social problems that exist, and people will continue to never know where the hell Saskatchewan is.
But they're missing out!
Tourist: Hey, can you show me around Edmonton?
Saskatchewanian: Sorry, I'm not from Alberta.
Tourist: Hey, can you show me around Calgary?
Saskatchewanian: Sorry, I'm not from Alberta.
Tourist: Fuck this, I just want to get to Ontario!
Albertan: Well, you'll have to go east through Saskatchewan and Manitoba first.
Tourist: What?! I only have a Canadian passport?? Wait, is this one of those French speaking places?
Albertan: You mean Quebec?
Tourist: Yeah!
Albertan: Dude, just go to Vancouver.

Easiest province to draw, beautiful skies, hundreds of lakes and hills (contrary to popular belief), and a fabulous music scene. Unfortunately, it is a place where many good people leave, making former Saskatchwan residences known throughout Canada (especially Vancouver) as incredibly talented and hard working people. But consequently, they are leaving the province to fester with age and incompetence. It is an incredibly beautiful and peaceful place to be from, though most people simply pass through on the highway, which is a lame-ass way to see somewhere. If you are awsome, please stop leaving Saskatchewan because a province can't be run by aging farmers. Look at Alberta.
Albertan: "You must be a communist, eh?"
Saskatchwanian: "Nope, just a socialist."
Albertan: "Is that anything like a capitalist? Cuz I'm one of those."
Ontarian: "Ooo, ooo! Me too! Me too!"
Saskatchewanian: "Uh, you guys are weird. I'm moving to Vancouver."

Saskatchewan is a province in Canada. It's basically Kansas but for Canada. It's full of rednecks, old white men, and sucky sports teams. It's also just a fucking rectangle.
person A: wow, Kansas is as flat as a pancake.
person B: you haven't been to Saskatchewan, son.

Saskatchewan is a beautiful province where half of it is beautiful praries and the other half is magnificeint forests and lakes. Saskatchewan is also the birth place of free medi-care. Unfortunately it takes years to get this "free medicare" now. Also every one leaves because there is no jobs here. Saskatchewan's phone, electrical, heating... are all controlled by the goverment. ON the plus side Saskatchewan has the worlds best uranium. lots of oil and endless other natural resources. On the down side most of those resources are sitting in the ground not being turned into a profit
Spud Co. was the stupidest goverment idea ever in the history of Saskatchewan.

When men in hotels are identified by hookers only by the province from which they hail, they are getting geographically boned.
Hotel clerk: "Do you know the name of the guest you're meeting."
Hooker: "No, I only just met him. He's from Saskatchewan."
Hotel clerk to other hotel clerks: "That chick is a hooker, and that guy is totally getting Saskatchewaned later."
