History

The first settlers in what was to become Estevan arrived in 1892, along with the expansion of the Canadian Pacific Railway. It was incorporated as a village in 1899, and later became a town in 1906.

The name origin is attributed to George Stephen's registered telegraphic address, Estevan.[2] George Stephen was the first President of the Canadian Pacific Railway from 1881 to 1888.
