Swift Current faced job losses and budget delays in 2025–2026 despite strong fire response and community safety efforts.
The Swift Current Fire Department responded to about 700 emergencies in 2025, including 42 structure fires likely caused by unattended cooking, and conducted nearly 1,900 community safety interactions.
In December 2025, the region lost 2,500 jobs, reducing employment to 50,900 and lowering the labour force participation rate to 61.1%, though the unemployment rate fell to 4.1%, ranking the region 13th lowest in Canada.
Nationally, Canada added 8,200 jobs but saw unemployment rise to 6.8%, with Saskatchewan’s rate jumping to 6.5%.
Meanwhile, Swift Current’s 2026 budget process was delayed due to internal finance issues and a new property assessment, with council reviews expected to begin in late March and the budget passed by late April, supported by new leadership and financial staff.
