Saskatchewan (electoral district)

Saskatchewan (electoral district)

Saskatchewan was a federal electoral district in Saskatchewan, Canada, that was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1906 to 1908.

This riding was created in following the admission of Saskatchewan into the Canadian Confederation in 1905 from the former Northwest Territories riding Provisional District of Saskatchewan. The sitting member in the prior riding at the time was John Henderson Lamont, who resigned in 1905.

The only member actually elected to this seat was George Ewan McCraney, in a by-election in 1906. The electoral district was abolished in 1907 when it was redistributed into the ridings of Battleford, Prince Albert, and Saskatoon.
