Saskatoon City (provincial Electoral District)
Saskatoon City was a provincial electoral division in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. This constituency existed from 1908 to 1967. It was the riding of Premier James T.M. Anderson. The riding was created for the 1908 election to separate the rapidly growing city of Saskatoon from the original riding of Saskatoon, which was renamed ''Saskatoon County''. During the 15th Saskatchewan Legislative Assembly (from 1964 to 1967), an amendment to the ''Representation Act'' divided Saskatoon City into several electoral divisions: * Saskatoon City Park-University * Saskatoon Mayfair * Saskatoon Nutana Centre * Saskatoon Nutana South * Saskatoon Riversdale From 1921 to 1967 Saskatoon City was one of three districts in the province that elected more than one representative to the Legislature.

Saskatchewan New Democratic Party
The Saskatchewan New Democratic Party (NDP) is a social-democratic political party in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It currently forms the official opposition, but has been a dominant force in Saskatchewan politics since the 1940s. The party is the successor to the Saskatchewan section of the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF), and is affiliated with the federal New Democratic Party. History Precursors The origins of the party began as early as 1902. In that year a group of farmers created the Territorial Grain Growers' Association. The objective of this group was to lobby for farmer's rights with the grain trade and the railways. The name was changed to the Saskatchewan Grain Growers' Association (SGGA) when Saskatchewan became a province in 1905. In 1921 a left-wing splinter group left the SGGA to form the ''Farmer's Union''. However, the two groups reconciled in 1926 and reformed as the United Farmers of Canada (Saskatchewan Section) (UFC).
