RADAR | HOT SPOT
Unique Bunny
Saskatoon
If you’re wandering through Saskatoon’s Midtown Mall and spot a crowd gathered around a vibrant pastel storefront, you’ve likely found Unique Bunny. Opened in November 2025, it’s one of 10 Unique Bunny locations in Canada, and the first spot in Saskatchewan to go deep on the global K-Beauty and J-Beauty phenomenon — bringing popular brands such as Canmake, Ishizawa Lab and SKIN1004 to local shelves. Unique Bunny is more than just a beauty store; it’s part skin care lab and part treasure hunt. You might come in for some Madagascar Centella Ampoule, but you may well leave with a handful of Korean candies or some Japanese chocolate bars. Whether you’re a skin care newbie or someone looking for a Korean sunscreen that’s gone viral or the perfect shade of brow pencil, the knowledgeable staff are more than willing to help you. It’s a specialized slice of East Asian retail culture that’s finally found a home on the Prairies. –Sean Deasy

RADAR | THE END OF THE ROAD
The Great Wall of Saskatchewan
Near Smiley, Sask.
Did you know Saskatchewan has its own “great wall”? Albert Johnson, a retired local farmer, began building it in 1962 entirely without mortar or cement. The kilometre-long Great Wall of Saskatchewan is a testament to the resourcefulness and dedication of Prairie settlers, who made use of the resources at hand to build their homes. Stone walls like this were built to provide shade and a windbreak. The drive from Saskatoon to the Great Wall can be completed in a little more than three hours, but it’s more fun to take a few breaks along the way. –Dick Snyder

RADAR | THE ONE
Edition 2
Mac in a Sac
Are you ready for another unpredictable Saskatchewan spring, where it can go from sunny to freezing rain in short order? You will be, with the Mac in a Sac Edition 2 jacket. It has a rainproof rating, which means it’s significantly more durable than standard water-resistant coatings, but it’s lighter than a professional-grade storm shell. Fully taped seams keep you dry during those inevitable spring showers. Its mid-range breathability means the jacket allows sweat to escape from the inside (in the form of water vapour), ensuring comfort as the temperature fluctuates. Best of all, this jacket is completely packable, folding neatly into its own small sack, so you can easily keep it stashed in your vehicle or backpack. Mac in a Sac Edition 2 is the essential piece for any springtime Prairie adventure. –Sean Deasy
Visit a local CAA Store to purchase your jacket.
