Re Re No Lake to freezeYep! No lake to freeze but plenty of swamp. Takes longer to freeze Swamp. LOL
Very much above average temps here in Sask including the North, but this usually does not matter much. Everything will be froze solid by the normal drill start time in mid January.
What Sask should be doing is building a very large nuclear power plant in the area and stop importing power. They could start selling it ,using the lowest cost fuel. Expect it will happen some day.
