Arriving officers started life-saving efforts on the driver, but police said his injuries were too severe and he succumbed to his injuries. Police have not released his name.
The front-seat passenger, a 15-year-old girl, was flown by STARS air ambulance to a Saskatoon hospital for treatment of serious, but non-life-threatening injuries, police said.
Two other passengers in the van, a boy and girl, both 14, were taken to hospital in Meadow Lake for treatment of minor injuries.
Police said the van was seized for further investigation, but added alcohol is not believed to be a factor in the rollover.
No other details have been released by RCMP as they continue to investigate.
