The Roman Catholic Diocese of Prince-Albert (Latin: Dioecesis Principis Albertensis) (created on 9 June 1933 when the Diocese of Prince-Albert-Saskatoon was split) is a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Regina. The Vicariate Apostolic of Saskatchewan was erected on 4 June 1891 and was re-erected as the Diocese of Prince-Albert in 1907. This was renamed as the Diocese of Prince-Albert-Saskatoon which was later split. The other diocese created from the split was the Diocese of Saskatoon.
