Duck Lake Residents Campaign to Preserve Town Name

The “Duck Lake Forever” campaign has emerged in response to the mayor’s proposal to sell naming rights for the historic town of Duck Lake, Saskatchewan, which is known for its Métis heritage and the 1885 Battle of Duck Lake. Residents are rallying against the plan, arguing it would erase their identity and burden taxpayers with potential costs for rebranding, while the mayor claims it could generate funds for infrastructure improvements.
