URL: https://baerelectric.ca/service-areas/loon-lake/ Last reviewed: 2026-10-03 Ten kilometres west of Loon Lake village, Steele Narrows is the site of the last battle fought on Canadian soil, on 3 June 1885. Today it's a provincial park. The village sits right beside Makwa Lake Provincial Park, and the names line up: in Cree, Makwa Sahgaiehcan means “loon lake”. Loon Lake counted 281 people in 2021, and it's about 44 minutes south of Goodsoil. Makwa, incorporated in 1965 and home to 78 people, is about 58 minutes from Goodsoil. Around both villages, the RM of Loon Lake takes in farmland, the Bronson Forest, Steele Narrows and Little Fishing Lake. So the work here is a mix: barns, grain bins and farmhouses on one side, and on the other, cabins on Makwa Lake that need a panel upgrade, outdoor outlets, a hot tub circuit or a look-over before the season. Gemstone permanent lights suit a lake place. They stay up through winter, run on sunset timers that keep working if the internet drops, and switch between warm white, holiday colours and team colours from the app. We install the track and do the wiring behind it. For anything that can't wait, from a dead well pump to a tripped main breaker, our emergency line runs 24/7. ## Electrical services in Loon Lake & Makwa Around Loon Lake and Makwa it's farms on one side and Makwa Lake cabins on the other.
