The year 2023 in Saskatchewan was marked by notable incidents, including heated debates over provincial school pronoun laws and the homelessness crisis in the province’s urban centres.
Looking forward, some of these events set the stage for stories to follow in 2024.
In the coming year, residents of Saskatchewan's major cities will participate in both provincial and municipal elections. The looming question of whether incumbent mayors will seek re-election remains unanswered.
Saskatoon Mayor Charlie Clark reflected on his decision in a year-end interview with CTV News.
"I'm taking time over the holidays to talk to my family and determine my future. There are lots of reasons to stay and to carry on and work on issues we're dealing with," said Clark.
On the provincial front, Premier Scott Moe confirmed he’ll run again in 2024.
Despite his Saskatchewan Party losing seats in two key 2023 by-elections, Moe holds a 53 per cent approval rating as the year concludes.
