The Saskatchewan Border Regiment
The Saskatchewan Border Regiment was an infantry regiment of the Non-Permanent Active Militia of the Canadian Militia (now the Canadian Army). The regiment was created in 1924 in Estevan, Saskatchewan, from the reorganization of The South Saskatchewan Regiment into 5 separate regiments. In 1936, The Saskatchewan Border Regiment was amalgamated with The Weyburn Regiment to reform The South Saskatchewan Regiment. History. The Saskatchewan Border Regiment originated as the 95th Regiment on July 3, 1905 with a headquarter in Regina. A Company and B Company of the 95th Regiment were designated the 60th Rifles of Canada  during World War I. On August 6, 1914, troops from the 95th Saskatchewan Rifles and the 60th Rifles of Canada were placed on active service, contributing officers and other ranks to the 46th Battalion, Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF), throughout World War I.
