Saskatchewan at the Paralympic Games

Smaller, Invitation-Only Venue in Whistler

The Government of Saskatchewan is proud to announce it will have a presence at the Paralympics.

The province will have a pavilion at the Whistler Golf and Country Club March 17 to 20.

“We felt it was important to support the Paralympics by having a presence in Whistler,” Minister of Tourism, Parks, Culture and Sport Dustin Duncan said.

“We are very proud of the show we put on in Vancouver, and while our pavilion at the Paralympics is smaller, we will continue to showcase Saskatchewan to the world during this major sporting event.”

Saskatchewan artists to perform at the pavilion include: Anique Granger, Rah Rah, and the Best Buddies Blues Band.

The Saskatchewan pavilion at the Paralympics is a private venue. Athletes, their families, representatives from VANOC’s Contributing Provinces and Territories Program, tourism officials and various business contacts will be invited.

“We want to wish Saskatchewan’s own Colette Bourgonie from Porcupine Plain our very best at the Paralympics. All our Saskatchewan athletes have done us proud, and we know Colette will as well,” Duncan said.
