Saskatchewan is looking for its next Saskatchewanderer.

“Leah Mertz faced unprecedented challenges during her year as Saskatchewanderer,” Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Laura Ross said in the release.
“Through a creative, thoughtful approach, she motivated people to make new discoveries in our province and to support our local industries and businesses all while staying safe.”
“Despite this year’s challenges, I’ve still been fortunate to safely explore and see some incredible destinations in the province,” Mertz added. “It truly is the job of a lifetime and I look forward to passing the torch in 2021.”
Applications will be accepted until noon on Dec. 10. Applicants must shoot, edit and submit an original video explaining why they’re the perfect person for the job.
