The MN–S election saw a record number of citizens register to vote, and officials say voter turnout was higher than in the previous election. Those voters chose to elect Glen McCallum to another term at the helm.

SASKATOON — The 2025 Métis Nation–Saskatchewan (MN–S) election has resulted in some new faces joining the MN-S leadership, forming the Provincial Metis Council.

Following a month of campaigning, president Glen McCallum has been re-elected. Vice-president Michelle LeClair and treasurer Jeremy Denomie have been elected and are subject to a potential recount. Marlene Hanson has been elected to the secretary position for the first time.

“We are pleased that the MN–S citizens came out and exercised their right to vote,” MN–S Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) Gwen LaFond said.

“This year we had more registered citizens than ever before, and we are pleased to have had more citizens come out to vote than in the previous election. I am extremely proud of our team and thank the citizens for their response.”

Eighteen individuals put their names forward for the executive positions, and 31 for regional director. The results of Saturday’s night election showed three offices to be very close and verification of the results are underway. Nine regional directors are unofficially returning to leadership.

The unofficial regional director results are:

NR1 Laura Burnouf (acclaimed)

NR2 Leonard Montgrand (re-elected)

NR3 Brennan Merasty

WR1 Loretta King (re-elected)

WR1A Billy Kennedy (re-elected)

WR2 Sherry Mclennan (re-elected)
