Regina, Saskatchewan, was founded in 1882 by the Canadian Pacific Railway as a railroad town. The area was originally inhabited by Indigenous peoples, including the Cree and Saulteaux nations, long before European settlers arrived. The name "Regina" was chosen in honor of Queen Victoria, who was the reigning monarch at the time. Over the years, the city grew and became the capital of Saskatchewan in 1905.
"Who founded Saskatchewan" is a very loose question as Saskatchewan didn't come into existence until it split from the Northwest Territories on September 1, 1905 officially becoming a province of Canada.

However, historically speaking, the first permanent European settlement was a Hudson's Bay Company post located at Cumberland House founded in 1774 by Samuel Hearne.
