The Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan is one of two components of the Legislature of Saskatchewan, the other being the Lieutenant Governor. The Legislature was unicameral from its establishment; there has never been a provincial upper house.
The Legislature meets at the Saskatchewan Legislative Building in Regina.
There are 58 ridings in the province which elect MLAs to the Legislative Assembly. All are single-member districts, though the cities of Regina, Saskatoon and Moose Jaw have been represented by multi-member constituencies in the past.
