I live in Saskatoon and work very near the airport. And when I was born I was brought back to married quarters on the airbase - later than WWII though! This airbase was one of those in the BCATP. All over Saskatchewan are closed down airfields and bases from those days.

Skipper, there were a lot killed in the training sessions. This summer I'll make a point of going through Soldier's Field at the cemetery and looking for the dates as many in the RCAF buried here would possibly be from those killed that way. Although, some will also be markers only that family put up for sons buried overseas.
