The speed limit of the Trans-Canada Highway in Saskatchewan is generally 110 kph. I'm one of those people who like to play it safe and drive at only about 3 kph above the posted limit. The highway is twinned throughout its entire length in Saskatchewan, so people are free to pass me by if they want. The same is also true of the Yellowhead Highway west of Saskatoon. (East of there, it becomes an undivided two-lane highway, but I've never driven that stretch.)

I'm not sure there's a rationale for increasing speed limits on the major highways. Higher speed limits require a longer stopping distance, aren't very fuel-efficient, and only cut off a few minutes per hour of driving. Actually, I've sometimes wondered why governments don't simply mandate car manufacturers to limit the top speed of their vehicles. I mean who other than law enforcement would need to go at 180 kph or whatever? I'm sure physically limiting cars to 130 kph would be just fine.
