Museum descriptions[edit]

I've added a section discussing specifics of the Saskatoon WDM as that's the one I know the most about. Obviously we need descriptions of the other 3 museums as well. Hopefully I've got the ball rolling. 23skidoo 17:48, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have added Moose Jaw, two more needed! - Ahunt (talk) 13:13, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Error corrected[edit]

Just to show even encyclopedias can get it wrong, the Canadian Encyclopedia listing for the WDM that was cited was completely wrong with regards to the construction of purpose built facilities. The WDM's very own website confirms that the first such buildings were constructed in Yorkton and Saskatoon in 1972, with Moose Jaw following in 76. I can confirm because I was there for the 1972 opening of the WDM in Saskatoon. 68.146.233.86 (talk) 04:28, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
