Located in the western part of Canada, Saskatchewan is bordered by Manitoba, Alberta, the Northwest Territories and the United States.

 Saskatchewan's population stands at a little less than a million people, or 3.6 per cent of Canada's population. The people of Saskatchewan come from a variety of ethnic backgrounds, which is why the provincial motto is "From many peoples, strength".
