Between 2006 and 2014, Saskatoon experienced a prolonged economic boom, with rapid growth driven by residents returning from out - of - province for unprecedented job opportunities created by a booming resource economy. Saskatchewan is rich in natural resources with uranium, oil, potash and farming representing the foundation of the region’s economy. Although the economy has slowed since 2014, the City of Saskatoon (the “City”) is planning ahead to ensure the right decisions are made now to prepare for a future population of 500,000. TCU Place and SaskTel Centre are City - owned public assembly facilities.
