Cynthia Block Becomes Saskatoon's First Female Mayor

Block's election marks a milestone in Saskatoon's history as she focuses on housing and economic development.

Cynthia Block won the Saskatoon mayoral race, receiving over 30,000 votes and defeating four other candidates.
Block, a former city councillor, emphasizes the importance of representation and aims to lead a modern, inclusive city.
Her campaign focused on economic growth, housing, and community safety, with plans for a task force on homelessness.
