REGINA -- The Saskatchewan government is declaring April 13 "Corner Gas Day" to coincide with the airing of the sitcom's final episode.
The popular CTV show, shot in rural southern Saskatchewan, wrapped up production of its sixth and last season earlier this year.
The series about life in a small prairie town called Dog River has been described as the most successful Canadian comedy ever made.
The show has snagged numerous Gemini awards and airs in syndication in countries around the world, including the United States.
Premier Brad Wall plans to sign a proclamation at the legislature in Regina this Monday.
Also present will be the show's star and creator, Saskatchewan-born Brent Butt.
