Premier Brad Wall placed the 2012 time capsule into the cornerstone at the Legislative Building in the same location where the 1909 time capsule was removed late last year.
"Not only does the time capsule help commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Legislative Building, it will provide future generations with a representation of our province in 2012," Wall said. "Future generations will get a glimpse into our growing province and see how we worked together to make Saskatchewan stronger."
Each of the time capsule items was processed by a conservator before being placed inside the time capsule. The bottom of the capsule was then sealed using tungsten inert gas welding. Argon was then pumped into the time capsule through a valve to remove any air or moisture to prepare it to be tucked away for the next century.
