Lucky Lake formerly known as Devil's Lake, is a village in Canaan Rural Municipality No. 225, Saskatchewan, Canada. The population was 287 as of the 2011 census. The Village is located at the junction of Highway 42, Highway 45 and Highway 646 approximately 90 km north-east of Swift Current, Saskatchewan.

History

Lucky Lake has seen many changes over the years. Within the past 13 years The Double "L" Motel was built in 1996, the Tullis Co-op expanded to Lucky Lake in 2005. West Central Road & Rail followed in 2007, & most recently H2O Systems in 2008, all to serve the community.[6]

Demographics

In 2011, Lucky Lake had a population of 287 living in 141 dwellings, a -2.7% population decrease from 2006. The village has a land area of 0.66 km2 (0.25 sq mi) and a population density of 435.6/km2 (1,128/sq mi).[7]

Economy

Agriculture and services to support agriculture constitute the largest component of the town's economy. Typical crops grown in the area include durum wheat, spring wheat, peas, lentils, and canola. Flax, beans and mustard are also grown to a lesser extent. Nearby Lake Diefenbaker provides water for irrigation so that additional crops such as potatoes can be grown. Wild West Steelhead, is an aquaculture farm that raises Steelhead Trout in the lake. The company employs many people in its operations that comprise the steps of egg incubation to the production of finished fillets.[8]

In the past, the provincial government's efforts (via a partnership known as SPUDCO) to create a potato growing industry in the province led to local jobs being created to grow and package potatoes. SPUDCO eventually failed and the local potato growing industry has been slow to recover.

Dana Johnson, a well known economist hailing from this city, was recently a member of the South Carolina Final Four team. He helped coach Sindarius Thornwell when he was a young boy.[citation needed]
