If you're not yet familiar with Saskatchewan, Canada's province known as 'The Land of Living Skies,' prepare for a journey off the beaten track...and into the wilderness.

Saskatchewan is renowned for its variety of landscapes, from the prairie grasslands of the south to the mist-shrouded boreal forests of the north. And as a place where people have lived and thrived for millennia, the indigenous perspective continues to shape Saskatchewan's culture.

So today, we're looking to dig into the heart and soul of this wild province to find out -- directly from the locals -- what makes it so special. Host Aaron Millar will be interviewing local travel writer Ashlyn George, Jodi Holliday from Tourism Saskatchewan, and acclaimed indigenous Chef Jenni Lessard from the Indigenous Culinary Alliance of Associated Nations.
