Saskatchewan Statutory Holidays 2028
Last reviewed: October 14, 2026 · Holiday data: August 25, 2026
The 2028 table for Saskatchewan lists 10 dates: 7 fall on a weekday and 3 on a weekend. This page's title says statutory holidays, the holidays a statute sets; the Government of Saskatchewan (saskatchewan.ca) calls them public holidays. That leaves 253 working days in 2028. Like the Canada calculator, this page counts Monday to Friday as working days; what changes is the holiday list.
How Saskatchewan differs from the federal Canadian holidays
Saskatchewan has 10 public (statutory) holidays per year, as saskatchewan.ca states, and the rows show ten in each of 2026, 2027 and 2028. To the federal set it adds Family Day on the third Monday of February and Saskatchewan Day on the first Monday of August. The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Boxing Day are not in the Saskatchewan rows, so those two federal days are dropped; Victoria Day, Thanksgiving and Remembrance Day are kept. No substitute weekday appears for a public holiday on a Saturday: Christmas Day 2027, and New Year's Day, Canada Day and Remembrance Day in 2028, stay on their Saturday dates and close no weekday.
