Regina
Regina lies along Wascana Creek, where level prairie terrain is tempered by parkland, Wascana Lake and mature urban trees. Before Regina was founded in 1882, the site was known as Pile of Bones; its present name honours Queen Victoria. It became Saskatchewan’s capital when the province was created in 1905. Wascana Centre, arranged around Wascana Lake, is the city’s defining civic landscape and includes the Saskatchewan Legislative Building. From this government and cultural district, neighbourhoods extend across the open southern Saskatchewan plains, with residential streets, green space and waterside paths shaping the city’s everyday character. The Royal Saskatchewan Museum and the MacKenzie Art Gallery are also part of Wascana Centre.

Regina’s surrounding terrain is open, level prairie, a setting that has shaped both its spread-out street plan and its role in Saskatchewan’s agricultural economy. Wascana Lake, formed on Wascana Creek, anchors Wascana Centre, a broad urban parkland shared by walkers, paddlers and civic institutions. The city has been Saskatchewan’s capital since the province was created in 1905, and its Legislative Building, completed in 1912, faces the lake from formal grounds. Regina is also closely associated with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, whose national training academy is based here.

Saskatchewan stretches from the United States border to the 60th parallel at the Northwest Territories, encompassing southern grain-growing plains and the boreal forest and Canadian Shield of the north. The South Saskatchewan River crosses the settled south, including Saskatoon, while the Churchill River runs through a northern country of lakes, rock and conifers. Regina, the provincial capital, is home to the Saskatchewan Legislative Building, completed in 1912. First Nations and Métis communities remain central to the province’s identity; Cree, Dene, Saulteaux and Métis traditions reflect both prairie and northern cultures.
