Notes


Memoir recounting the development of rural electrification in Saskatchewan. The author, a longtime SaskPower executive, describes the effort to extend electrical service to farms and rural communities following passage of the province’s Rural Electrification Act by the CCF government in 1949. Drawing on personal experience, the work outlines the planning, construction, and administration involved in bringing power to widely dispersed settlements, and reflects on the changes electrification brought to agricultural life and rural communities across the province.
