This issue of The Saskatchewan Gazette contains important communications regarding the outbreak of World War I. It includes the Declaration of War between the British Empire and Germany. At the time, Canada was still heavily influenced by Britain's decisions; therefore, the citizens of Canada and Saskatchewan found themselves at war as well.
The issue is Volume X, No. 15, and was issued on August 15, 1914, only 11 days after Britain formally declared war on Germany.
The Saskatchewan Gazette, 1914, was submitted to the Saskatchewan War Experience by the Saskatchewan Queen's Printer, Ministry of Justice and Attorney General.
