The next civic election is scheduled for on October 20, 2025, just a little over a year from now but who may or may not be running is it already a topic of discussion. City councillor Andrew Knack announced his intention not to run for reelection in Ward Nakota Isga and other councillors will be making their intentions known in the weeks and months ahead.

The bigger question that is being asked is will Mayor Sohi run again? Edmonton's fiscal situation and other issues have been a cloud over Mayor Sohi's first term and whether or not that cloud will blow away the next few months will probably go a long way in determining what Mayor Sohi will do.
