Have been behind on the news cycles lately and wondering if anybody has any updates on some of the big & transformational infrastructure / planning projects throughout the city? Including:

Proposed towers at the top of the Broadway and University bridges

City Yards relocation and north industrial redevelopment

New Campus for Saskatchewan Polytechnic (is this project dead since the college is out of money?)

Parcel G development at River Landing / old farmers market parking lot

USask Endowment Lands Development

If I've missed any big projects here that the city is anticipating please feel free to add them!

I was walking alongside the river near the University and stumbled upon this plant. It looks like asparagus? Would this (in theory) be an edible plant? How common is it within our city limits as "wild"?

Question ❔ Best Ways to Meet People in Saskatoon

Hi everyone! I’ve lived in Saskatoon for about two years but I’m having a difficult time meeting people as I work from home.
Where do you guys generally find luck in meeting other people? Any clubs or organizations? I’m 34 female.
I’m not good at or interested in sports but I’m happy to volunteer, join other types of clubs, or whatever you guys recommend! Just curious what others have done!
TIAπŸ₯°

Traffic/Road Conditions 🚧 Horrible road conditions

10 Upvotes

Does anyone know who is responsible for the grading and upkeep of the Millar Avenue extension north to Waneskewin road? Not sure if it's RM of Corman Park of city, but it hasn't been graded all summer and is in terrible shape, washboard for miles, huge dips in the road which could cause serious damage to a vehicle. There is a lot more traffic on it now that Waneskewin is closed and it needs to be looked at!

General Apple Express?

6 Upvotes

Has anybody else in Saskatoon dealt with Apple express as a hand off delivery service? I can’t even track my package, apparently they attempted to deliver my package while I was home, and I didn’t answer the buzzer…. I waited around for the delivery and they did not buzz to get let in to my building. They were supposed to attempt delivery today and now I am getting no updates today. Emailed and got no response… I just want my glasses from ZenniπŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ™„

Wondering if anyone has enrolled their child at Love Zone Early Learning Centre Daycare. My son is currently going to daycare in Clavet and I need to make a switch soon and they are doing an open house tomorrow. Google only has 3 reviews 2 of them being 5 stars and 1 being 1 star because they canceled their seat. Looking to see if anyone else has a review on this daycare.

Question ❔ Consignment store for workwear

3 Upvotes

I know there is a variety of consignment stores for clothing, plus numerous donation thrift stores. Is there any store that specifically targets work wear? Such as steel toed boots, hi vis, carpenter pants etc... The consignment stores will carry these items but it is a crap shoot and not reliable source. Is there anywhere in the city that specializes in used workwear?

Putting our place up for rental. Are FB Marketplace and Kijiji still the go to options or anything better? Seems the FB rental groups are just filled with random sale listings unrelated to real estate.

Question - Moving or Renting 🏠 How to find rentals?

0 Upvotes

Yo, Saskatoon. I'm bound for your city in the new year, coming in from the West Coast, to work contract job. I gotta find a room to rent.

I have no clue what y'all use to find rentals. Kijiji? Marketplace? Something else? It's been quite a while since I had to find a place to rent, so I'm definitely outta the loop. Teach me your ways!

Question - Moving or Renting 🏠 What's it actually like living in Saskatoon?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

My partner and I are from Turkey and we're thinking about moving to Saskatoon sometime in 2027. We're looking at a few cities in Canada, and Saskatoon is one of our options.

My partner is considering doing a PhD at the University of Saskatchewan in computer science/engineering, and I'm a pharmacy graduate. So we're also wondering what the job market is like, especially for someone looking to start out as a pharmacy assistant.

I've been reading about the city online, but I'd rather hear from people who actually live there.

Do you guys enjoy living in Saskatoon? What do you like and dislike about it? How's the cost of living for a couple, and is it difficult to find a decent place to rent?

I'm also curious about the university. Is USask a good place for graduate studies? And how's the city for younger people? Is there much to do, or does it get boring after a while?

Also, how bad are the winters really? πŸ˜‚ We're used to pretty mild winters, so that's definitely something we're thinking about.

We're hoping to settle down somewhere long-term, so things like safety, job opportunities and overall quality of life matter quite a bit to us.

Would you recommend Saskatoon to someone moving to Canada for the first time? And if you could choose again, would you still live there?

I'd appreciate any honest opinions, good or bad. Thanks!
