In many Indigenous cultures a pipe ceremony symbolizes unity, peace and a connection between the physical and spiritual worlds.

Vegetation management may sound like a fancy way to describe mowing your lawn and pulling weeds. But, at SaskEnergy, it’s an important part of maintaining safety at our facilities across Saskatchewan! “Overgrown vegetation can create a safety issue if left unaddressed,” says Sheena Nabozniak, Manager of Damage Prevention. “It can impact the accessibility of our facilities. This can cause challenges during regular maintenance work as well as in the event of an emergency.” Keeping vegetation neat and tidy also helps reduce fire hazards, improve site security, and meet regulatory and...

A quarter century ago, our construction crews were a main attraction for children spending their summers at Kenosee Provincial Park. SaskEnergy employees worked for several summers to extend gas service to cabins in the area in the late 1990s. “Some kids, you couldn’t get rid of them. They’re pointing and looking; the parents want to go, but the kids want to stay and see us work,” says Dale Staudt, a Crew Lead with our southern Saskatchewan Construction team. “We would stop and explain what we were doing and show them.
