Redistribution
A grab bag rural riding created by redistribution. Blackstrap loses the southeast quadrant of Saskatoon to Saskatoon-Grasswood. It gains a northeast corner from Saskatoon—Humboldt. It then adds all of Regina—Lumsden—Lake Centre minus two areas.
These are the northwest quadrant of Regina which goes to Regina Lewvan. And a north-south strip on the southeastern border just north of Regina and along the east side of Highway 6 goes to Regina–Qu'Appelle.
To the south it then adds much of Palliser with Moose Jaw, less a north-south strip on its western border that goes to Cypress Hills-Grasslands that has Caronport in the north, south to Mossbank.
In the east, Palliser and the riding as a whole adds a north-south strip from Wascana with small places like Eslin and Gray and south of that what becomes the riding's southeast corner, a block from Souris—Moose Mountain with Milestone and smaller Dummer and Parry.
