A recent blanket exercise at our Regina Service Centre hit close to home for SaskEnergy Operations employee Todd Sanderson. Todd spent eight years in the residential school system and knows firsthand the experiences discussed during the exercise. “The path we had to walk as a people helps explain where we are now,” Todd says. “Our history should be shared to close a gap between cultures that never should have been separated in the first place.” A number of SaskEnergy employees have taken part in blanket exercises as part of our company’s commitment to Truth and Reconciliation.

At SaskEnergy, we want to be good stewards of the environment. We also want to maintain positive relationships with our stakeholders. Our reclamation inspection program allows us to do both! After we complete any largescale infrastructure project, we aim to return the land to its original — or to a better — state. “Our infrastructure is often located on private property. We want to make sure every landowner is happy with SaskEnergy’s service and performance,” says Ashley Syrgiannis of SaskEnergy’s Environment & Sustainability team. Reclamation means carefully replacing the soil and...

SaskEnergy continued to provide safe, reliable and affordable energy to Saskatchewan in 2022-23 as demand for natural gas continued to grow. Two of our customers share why natural gas is the right choice for them — now and into the future — in our 2022-23 Annual Report. Greg Stewart owns a home at Benito Beach, a resort community in Duck Mountain Provincial Park.

I got a new furnace and a standby natural gas generator, which I’m happy to...

Effective January 1, 2023, line locates in Saskatchewan are valid for 30 calendar days, up from 10 business days. A line locate involves the use of flags, stakes or paint to mark the location of buried utility lines. Line locates are available free of charge to help you plan safe digging activities. Having a longer expiry period provides more flexibility when planning projects and aligns Saskatchewan with other provinces and jurisdictions that already use a 30-day window for line locates. To request a line locate online, visit the Sask 1st Call website.

The gymnasium at St. Michael Community School in Regina was recently transformed into a wonderland of holiday gifts, with support from SaskEnergy employees who volunteered and fundraised. Books, toys, movies and other items were on offer. Excited students rushed up and down the aisles searching for that perfect present.

Our employees have happily pitched in at this event since 2012, and the...
