Govan /ˈɡɒvən/ is a town in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan about 111 kilometres (69 mi) north of Regina on Highway 20.
The first settlers made their homes along the shores of Long Lake (now known as Last Mountain Lake), at places close to McKillops's Landing, Arlington Beach, and Taylorboro.
The original settlers used the waters of Last Mountain Lake, which is 93 kilometres (58 mi) long, as a means of transportation.
This lake transportation system was abandoned when the early extension of the Canadian Pacific Railway Kirkella branch from Bulyea to Lanigan and on to Saskatoon was built, opening up more of the country to the settlers.
Some of the settlers came north from Craven, through Bulyea and Strasbourg districts.
