Biggar was named by William Biggar, a lawyer for the company which built the first tracks through this area, Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. As the tracks were established and the train station was built, the people came from all over the world for the “free land” promised by the Dominion Government. They came to farm, to open shops, to provide services. By 1909, Biggar became a village, and by 1911, a town. The forefathers of this town were forward thinking. They knew to provide services for the people of the area and build Biggar into the community it is.
