SASKATCHEWAN LESSONS Saskatoon berries make the world’s best pie and stain your mouth purple. The northern lights put the best dancers to shame, and make fireworks seem pale. It’s okay to help someone and to talk to someone Even if you don’t know their name; Chances are they’re a friend waiting to happen. Moose Jaw is a real place and not a practical joke. Swift Current is not a river… Life is never certain, save for one thing: No matter how far away I go, This place will forever by my home.
