Winter is coming, Saskatoon.
At this time of the year, we still remember the long, lazy days of summer and the first crisp days of fall that dupe us into believing that maybe, just maybe, this winter will be different. Maybe this time, the winter days won’t seem so short, the dark evenings and cold mornings won’t be so bad. Perhaps this time around when the snow falls and finally stays, turning Saskatoon streets into skating rinks and inescapable ice ruts, everyone will have winter tires, window scrapers and the skill required to stop at red lights.
Saskatoon – this time you’ll be there for us, right?

Saskatoon, you make us hardy warriors of the subzero.
As Halloween passed, and Remembrance Day poppies begin to appear, we look back over our summer memories, cling close to the summer sun’s warmth still stored within our tissues and wrap ourselves with the comforting knowledge that we’re all in this together.
