Welcome to the Saskatchewan Branch site!
The Saskatchewan Branch of CWRA has been active since 1947. The board of directors is a group of volunteers and professionals working in various aspects of water resources across the province, including government agencies and crown corporations, non-government agencies, consultancies, and universities.
In this time of COVID-19, the Saskatchewan Branch has reverted entirely to remote delivery. All Branch directors’ meetings and Project WET activities are conducted online. Branch directors have recently created a reserve fund policy and activities for the future. A few years ago, the branch established a series of monthly webinars and, in our present situation, these have become even more important as a means of keeping in touch with members.
Saskatchewan is well into their 2020-2021 webinar series and we invite everyone to “Join us on your lunch break from the comfort of your desk chair whether you are working from home this year, or back at the office!”. Webinars can be purchased individually or as a package, and all proceeds are directed towards Project WET activities in the province.
President: Bob Halliday
Vice President: Stephanie Merrill
Secretary: Brad Uhrich
Treasurer: Curtis Halborg
Past President: Bruce Davison

The CWRA Ontario Branch Mentorship Program is intended to provide value to newer members of the CWRA, increase professional engagement in water management activities and in CWRA activities, and build long term connections among members of CWRA. The program allows for the transfer of information among generations of professionals in water resources. The Ontario mentorship program is affiliated with national CWRA mentorship activities.
The mentorship program is currently between sessions. Applications for the 2020-2021 session will open in the early fall. Information about the 2019-2020 session is available here.
If you are looking for mentorship but are not in Ontario, please get in touch with the Ontario Mentorship Program by email and they can refer you to a local branch for mentoring options.
The Ontario Branch of CWRA offers a variety of opportunities for people to become engaged and involved in water resource management in Ontario. If you are curious about CWRA, subscribe to our newsletter to hear about upcoming events that will give you a chance to meet other CWRA members and water professionals.
