What former Canadian MP and Senator named a community in Saskatchewan after a semi-ruined mid-14th-century fortress, located 5 km east of North Berwick, in East Lothian, Scotland?
Tantallon, Saskatchewan The community was founded in 1904 and takes its name from a homestead (which was named "Tantallon" by Scottish Canadian James Moffat Douglas (former Canadian MP and Senator)), who said this part of the Qu'Appelle Valley reminded him of Tantallon Castle in Scotland.
Alsask, Saskatchewan Alsask (2006 Population 129) is a special service area in the Rural Municipality of Milton No. 292 within west central Saskatchewan, Canada. It previously held the status of a village until July 30, 2009. The community is located 60 km west of Kindersley and just east of the Alberta border. Highway 44 runs to the east of Alsask, and Highway 7 lies a few kilometres to the north. Its name combines the names of Alberta and Saskatchewan, although it is a misconception that it straddles the border between the two provinces (it is actually adjacent to the border). While the village lies completely within Saskatchewan, the local graveyard is actually in Alberta. Its most notable landmark is one of three remaining radar domes that for many years operated as CFS Alsask as part of the Canadian Forces Pine Tree Line. Alsask Lake is located south east of the town site.
