Ardath is an unincorporated community in the west-central region of Saskatchewan located on Highway 654, along the Canadian National Railway, Delisle-Tichfield Junction stub.

Ardath's decline began after a series of bizarre events, starting in 1919 when a train crashed through one of the village's grain elevators killing three people.

A southbound passenger train took to the switch track at high speed and slammed through the first of four grain elevators at Ardath.

When the train came to a crashing halt it was buried in grain.Three  people were killed in the accident; the locomotive fireman, the engineer, and a passenger.

Margaret was singled out for the honour due to the bravery that she exhibited on the night of October 13, 1942 in a wartime naval incident involving the sinking of the ferry SS Caribou by a German U-boat during the Battle of the St. Lawrence during the Second World War.
