Darren Hill will remain on Saskatoon City Council according to a Queen’s Bench judge ruling.

Saskatoon City Councillors voted for a judge to rule on whether the Ward 1 City Councillor could remain in his elected position.

Hill missed the deadline to file his civic election campaign expense disclosure by just over two weeks and a city bylaw decrees that an elected official who misses the deadline is disqualified from council and has to resign immediately.

Hill cited brain fog and lingering effects from COVID-19 as part of the reason he missed the deadline.
