The Northern Saskatchewan Administration District (NSAD) is the unorganized area of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It encompasses approximately half of Saskatchewan's land mass. Despite its extent, the majority of Saskatchewanians live in the southern half of the province, while the majority of northern Saskatchewanians live in incorporated municipalities outside the NSAD's jurisdiction. The 2016 census, which refers to the area as Division No. 18, Saskatchewan, [2][3] It is one of the eighteen Statistics Canada census divisions within the province, occupying the northern half of the province.

The census division is the largest in the province terms of area at 269,996.55 square kilometres (104,246.25 sq mi), representing 46 per cent of the province's entire area of 588,239.21 square kilometres (227,120.43 sq mi).[4]

The most populous communities in the census division are La Ronge and La Loche with populations of 2,743 and 2,611 respectively.[5][6]

The 2016 census also refers to the Unorganized Division No. 18, which counted only 1,115 residents, which placed its population density at 250 square kilometres (97 sq mi) for every inhabitant. The district has no local government and is directly subject to the Minister of Government Relations.[7]

History

An unincorporated Northern Saskatchewan region was first established by the 1948 Northern Administration Act.[7]
