History

Originally established as French, Saskatchewan the name of the community was changed to Clavet on December 1, 1909.[1] Due to its low population level, in 1927 the village was dissolved, with administrative responsibilities transferred to the rural municipality of Blucher; it was not until 1964 that the population reached a point that permitted Clavet to become an organized municipality again.[2]
