A small museum space but gives enough information for most people to appreciate John G Diefenbaker's legacy. Has a replica room of his office and of the cabinet room during his time as PM. The other exhibit at the time was about rotten food which the kids liked but I just walked by. Things to note: - We had no trouble getting parking immediately outside the building in July. - Giving a donation to the UofS in lieu of an admission was surprisingly difficult. There was a QR code available but the website had a lot of steps. The Remai Modern had a board where one could just tap your card on an amount to donate. - As someone who was interested in more, I would have purchased Diefenbaker's memoir right there if there was a small gift shop.

It’s in the campus of University of Saskatchewan. John Diefenbaker was a 13th president of Canada. Who was a alumni of Usask. There is a telephone inside this centre where you can heard the famous conversation between him and John F Kennedy. Both of them were too much sarcastic in their conversation. It was really nice experience to visit this place. If you visit Saskatoon Canada, please keep this place in your visit list.

A great little museum about Prime Minister Diefenbakers life in politics. Very interesting with some little known facts about how he and JFK got along, and how they didn’t! It was so interesting. Lots of neat artifacts and information. Admission is free. Staff are super friendly! Definitely worth visiting!

From our Saskatchewan trip of 2013. Diefenbaker is one of our most interesting and influential prime ministers and the inspiration of great art. This museum was an unexpected treat. Of course, the Fafard sculpture is at the McKenzie Gallery
