Prince Albert, Saskatchewan

Prince Albert is the third largest city (after Saskatoon and Regina) with a population of just over 41 000 as of 2001, in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada. It is situated more-or-less in the center of the province on the banks of the North Saskatchewan River. The city is known as the "Gateway to the North" due to its being the most northerly major centre as well to its being situated where the agricultural prairie of the south meets the forested and lakeland areas of the north. Prince Albert National Park, located just 50km north of the city, has a huge wealth of lakes, forest, and wildlife.
