Help choosing fruit trees for saskatchewan

I would like to order some trees for my sister living in between lloydminister and saskatoon saskatchewan. I believe they are rated a solid zone 2. Cold windy winters and hot summers. There are two existing unidentified apples which from pics seem of a good old age.

In regards to cherries, i know the SK series are best, so that answer is easy. Apples arent too hard to choose from, but I would like to see what people suggest for a hardy apple tree for zone 2, and has multipurpose apples.

The problem for me is thinking of pears and plums. The russian types of pears have conflicting information for use and taste, and there are no euro types hardy to zone 2 that I can find. Her mother in law grows plums and pears but doesnt know what kind they are. Grafting of those could work, but I dont think they will try it.
