Saskatchewan still organizes much of the countryside as rural municipalities numbered on a grid people can recite. Towns, villages, and resort villages sit inside that pattern like knots in a net. Regina and Saskatoon stay outside this box unless they change a division line or a provincial rule that follows you home.
Words that belong here: RM, reeve, SARM, municipal mill, education property tax talk, school division, conservation and irrigation country, Local Government Board heritage, the grid road that two offices both claim.
Standing frames: mill rate, two maps, election year.
