Somehow, either from previous reports or a total invention of my mind, I was expecting the WTC Saskatoon to be built on the corner of 22nd and 4th where the Haultain Building stands. But this image is showing it on 22nd and 3rd where the old Affinity is:

This makes sense - it can connect to the BHP Building, and with the Jansen mine seeming likely to go ahead they could be in the market for more space in a few years. This will beef up that corner of 3rd nicely. But we need some ground floor retail space here or this whole side of the block will have been sterilized.

I fear that the Haultain Building will be sacrificed to create surface parking to serve this building. I hope that's not the case. It would be great if North Prairie/Canwest has future plans to develop a condo there.
