The Saskatchewan Border Regiment was a regiment based in southern Saskatchewan. In 1936 it was combined with the Weyburn Regiment to form the South Saskatchewan Regiment. The South Saskatchewan Regiment (old one), in 1924, was reorganized and split into various smaller regiments. The South Sasks were reformed in 1936.

““Although our love is waning, let us stand
By the lone border of the lake once more,
Together in that hour of gentleness
When the poor tired child, Passion, falls asleep....””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Simplicity of life, even the barest, is not a misery, but the very foundation of refinement; a sanded floor and whitewashed walls and the green trees, and flowery meads, and living waters outside; or a grimy palace amid the same with a regiment of housemaids always working to smear the dirt together so that it may be unnoticed; which, think you, is the most refined, the most fit for a gentleman of those two dwellings?”
—William Morris (1834–1896)
