Turner Island is a small island in the south-western part of Cree Lake in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan.[1] It was named after Alfred Gordon Turner as part of the GeoMemorial Commemorative Naming Program that honours soldiers who died in service of Canada. He was killed in action during World War II on 2 November 1942.[2]
A fish plant was built on the island in 1957 by Waite Fisheries and is located at 57°23′57″N 106°40′10″W / 57.39917°N 106.66944°W. On the island in the 1970s, there was the Cree Lake DNS Radio Station (Department of Northern Saskatchewan) with 10 people and a camp at the north-end with 15 people.
