Tarnopol is an unincorporated community in Saskatchewan, Canada, located 50 km southwest of the city of Melfort. It was settled mostly by Ukrainian and Polish immigrants in the early 1900s. It gets its name from Ternopil, Ukraine, which was formerly known as Tarnopol when the territory was part of Poland.[1]
