Contents

The largest community is Rosetown. Smaller communities in the district include the towns of Outlook, Elrose, Kyle, Zealandia, and Eston; and the villages of Dinsmore, Harris, Beechy, Lucky Lake, and Conquest.

History

This constituency was created for the 1975 election from the districts of Rosetown and Elrose. The district was renamed Rosetown-Biggar before the 1995 general election, but the name was changed back to Rosetown-Elrose before the 2003 general election.

Prior to the next general election, the district will be significantly reconfigured, losing a large area west of Rosetown and Elrose to Kindersley-Biggar and Cypress Hills, while taking in Delisle and adjacent areas of exurban Saskatoon from Biggar-Sask Valley. Accordingly, the riding will be renamed Rosetown-Delisle. [1]
