Chair’s message
At your service
how Caa Saskatchewan’s board of directors works for you
in MeMoriAM
property, automotive and travel insurance needs.
While some things have changed, advocacy and
safety remain a fundamental responsibility of our
club. We continue to put your family’s safety first
with the CAA School Safety Patrol and CAA School
Zone Safety Assessment programs, while our
CarFit program focuses on the comfort and safety
of mature drivers. We also continue to support the
Saskatchewan chapters of Students Against Drinking
and Driving (SADD). We are a strong advocate of the
slow to 60 km/h law for working tow truck operators
who help motorists on our highways. And with last
fall’s federal cannabis legislation, CAA has become a
knowledgeable and trusted advocate about cannabis-
impaired driving. The message is clear: If you plan to
consume, don’t drive.
On behalf of our dedicated staff and board of dir-
ectors at CAA Saskatchewan, I thank you for your
membership. We look forward to continuing to serve
you and your families.
Suzanne Young, J.D., ICD.D
Chair, Caa Saskatchewan
Board of Directors
Mr. Garth Knakoske, Chair of the CAA Saskatchewan Board of Directors from 2007 to 2009, passed
away last December. Mr. Knakoske was a dedicated and committed member of the board, having served
several years as a committee member in addition to his two-year term as chair. His financial expertise and
commitment to CAA played an integral role in serving our Members. For that, CAA Saskatchewan will
always be grateful. Our condolences and sympathy to Garth’s wife, Susan, and his family in Swift Current.

Welcome to the first issue of 2019! Did you know
that CAA Saskatchewan Magazine reaches more
adults across our province than any other print
publication? Now that’s something to talk about!
Since 2017, I’ve been honoured to serve as chair of
the board of directors for CAA Saskatchewan. But my
association with the club dates to 1998 when I first
became a Member. Since then, I’ve enjoyed many
benefits with my CAA membership, everything from
insurance for my family to roadside assistance and
travel planning.
Our board of directors works diligently to serve
our 183,000 valued Members. Each board member
brings diverse professional experience, spanning
industries including law, engineering, human
resources, education, automotive, building and
construction, government and agriculture.
This past year, we introduced new Member benefits
to CAA Roadside Assistance, including Bike Assist
and Ride Assist. We also streamlined membership
purchases and renewals through online approved
credit card renewal. And our professional travel
consultants are even more accessible—you can
contact them for expert knowledge and bookings
through their individual websites. On the insurance
side, CAA Saskatchewan Insurance Services is
celebrating 25 years of service for your home and
