Airport contact
City-owned regional hub in northern Saskatchewan; Rise Air (First Nations-owned, HQ Saskatoon) bases a maintenance facility here and operates scheduled turboprop service to La Ronge, Points North, Stony Rapids, Fond-du-Lac, Uranium City and Wollaston Lake alongside mining-industry charter work. Saskatchewan does not observe DST, so the field runs on CST (UTC-6) year-round despite the standard CT convention shown above. No CBSA customs/CATSA screening presence was found; not among Canada's CATSA-designated or Statistics Canada top-airport traffic tables, so no verifiable public annual passenger total could be sourced - pax figures left null rather than estimated.
