Demographics
editPrior to November 4, 1988, Ferland was incorporated as a village, and was restructured as a hamlet under the jurisdiction of the Rural municipality of Mankota on that date.[1]
In 2012, the government recognised the significant influence the francophone population had in Ferland's history, and so permanently installed a fransaskois flag in the hamlet.[2]
