The election will also be a chance to elect new city councillors and school board trustees. Saskatoon could see as many as eight new councillors.

Two councillors have already been acclaimed — Ward nine with Bev Dubois and Ward 10 with Zach Jeffries.

Primary issues discussed over the campaign have included the downtown arena, homelessness and shelters, affordability and safety.

Saskatoon, the choice is yours. Election day is here.
