The Rural Municipality of Maryfield #91 was incorporated as a rural municipality on the 9th day of December, 1912. The 2021 Census reported the population of the RM of Maryfield was at 258 with 108 dwellings and that it covers 759.63 square kilometres.
The RM of Maryfield #91 is located in the southeast corner of the province of Saskatchewan. The east boundary sits on the Manitoba Border and is 163 km from the United States Border. The RM of Maryfield is approximately 30 minutes from Redvers, Moosomin, and Wawota, SK and Virden and Elkhorn, MB.
This municipality has two villages within our boundaries, the Village of Fairlight and the Village of Maryfield as well as the community of Ryerson.
The Village of Fairlight is still run by its own municipal council. In this little community with a population of 40 there are two businesses, Fairway Sales, a furniture store, and Home Sweet Home, a tea house/giftware store.
The Village of Maryfield is also run by its own municipal council. This is a community with a population of 348. There are a variety of businesses here as well. The Arlington Hotel has a great bar and restaurant; The Corner Store is the Village's only grocery store; as well as a post office. There is a medical clinic that is open 5 days a week, Sunrise Villa, an assisted living residence, low income housing, and ambulance services. There are two churches, the St. Andrew's Church and the Associated Gospel Church, both holding services each Sunday as well as other events throughout the year. For fun, there is a theatre that plays movies twice a weekend, a fitness centre, curling and skating ice which still hosts the local Rec hockey games. In late July, the Community hosts its annual Fair and Horse Show, bringing entries from many different communities.
The community of Ryerson was once a Hamlet within our municipality. In its day, it was home to a general store, which also housed the post office. This community also had a curling rink, a skating rink and the Bond School. Today, all that is left is one residence. The old store still stands empty on the north side of town adjacent to the train tracks, and even though the Bond School has been closed for years it is still the meeting place for picnics in the summer.

Saskatchewan Multicultural Week is celebrated each November during the week that includes November 22nd.
Saskatchewan was the first province to enact multiculturalism legislation in 1974, recognizing the right of every community to retain its identity, language, and traditional arts and sciences for the mutual benefit of citizens. In 1997, the Act was revised and a section of the Act states that the policy should preserve, strengthen and promote Indigenous cultures and acknowledge their historic and current contribution to development of Saskatchewan.
The Multicultural Council of Saskatchewan is committed to promoting, fostering, improving and developing multiculturalism in the economic, cultural and political life of Saskatchewan while working to achieve equality of all residents. MCoS is funded by Sask Lotteries through SaskCulture.
