Diefenbaker was prime minister from 1957 to 1963 and served as Prince Albert’s member of Parliament from 1953 until his death in 1979.
Deb Honch, president of the historical society, says the group will be going to the provincial and federal governments asking for help with renovation costs.
The house is owned by the city and needs work both outside and inside the structure.
Honch is estimating the cost at anywhere from $300,000 to $400,000.
