The Consumers’ Association of Canada (Saskatchewan Branch) Inc.

Founded in 1947, the Consumers’ Association of Canada (Saskatchewan Branch) Inc. (CAC/SK) is a non-profit, volunteer-driven association, committed to fairness in the marketplace and to improving the quality of life for all consumers.

The CAC/SK operates on behalf of, and provides services to all Saskatchewan consumers.  The Association has members from many areas of the province and is run by a volunteer board.  The Association is registered in Saskatchewan as a non-profit corporation.  Our national body is the Consumers' Association of Canada.

The Association in Saskatchewan produces a quarterly newsletter SaskWatch that is mailed to all members and subscription holders. Complimentary copies are sent to the media, relevant government departments, other non-profit associations and distributed through the regional library system.

The Association supports the belief in universal consumer rights to safety, to be informed, to choose, to be heard, to consumer education, to a healthy environment and to redress. These universal rights provide the basis for our positions on legislation, regulations, and action performance in the marketplace.
