Sept. 23, 2024
The Saskatchewan Roughriders have unveiled a new Indigenous logo which was designed by Chris Chipak from Red Pheasant Cree Nation — Treaty 6.
The logo, commissioned in recognition of the team’s commitment to Truth and Reconciliation, will be showcased throughout Mosaic Stadium and on CTV, TSN, RDS and CBS. The logo will be on player helmets as part of the Riders kisiskâciwan game on Saturday.
“My goal has always been to have my work leave a story, even when art can’t be seen the stories carry on. My focus on this piece was to promote the importance of the land and the beauty of the prairies,” Chipak said in a statement. “I hope as this logo is revealed it provides healing, hope and inclusion to all. I wanted this to be a timeless logo that heals us from the past, make us feel in the present, and gives us hope for a better future.”
