Though sasketchewan is mainly famous for being flat this is actually a fallacy, only 50% of the province is prarie, when you go north there are tree, lakes and hills completly different from the sterotype.
Sasketchewan was heavily involved in research into LSD (it was hoped it could cure mental illnesses) these were often given to students and in one case given to an architect. They wanted to design trip rooms, rooms that were safe for people on lsd (and also for the best experiences), the architect took it so he could understand it and designed circle rooms. The architect was latter hired to design schools through out the provice, when he designed kindergraden classes he always used the design he had developed for trip rooms. Tommy Douglas was the premier of sasketchewan and allowed the LSD studies to take place. In his early years whilst at university he wrote His thesis entitled The Problems of the Subnormal Family was on eugenics, a way to "solve the problems of the Subnormal Family" by sterilizing mentally and physically disabled Canadians, and sending them to camps. Tommy Douglas created the canadian national health service. Jack Bauer (24) is his grandson, well technically the actor Kiefer Sutherland is his grandson.
