One part of the Saskatchewan framework that borrowers in Humboldt ask about is payday lending: A licensed payday regime operates here. the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) cap the total cost of borrowing at $14 per $100 advanced, and the Regulations describe this province's own limit as $17 per $100 advanced, the top of the published range. Confirm the cap currently in force with the provincial regulator.
