Glenn Anderson to Return as Mayor of St. Paul
Familiar face leads new council after 2025 municipal election
Voters in the Town of St. Paul have brought back a familiar leader. Glenn Anderson, who previously served as mayor from 2007 to 2017, has reclaimed the mayor’s seat after winning the 2025 municipal election with 955 votes. His opponent, Sylvie Smyl, received 650.
Anderson’s decade-long history in the role gives him deep roots in local governance, regional collaboration, and economic development. His return marks a notable shift for the community as he steps back into office eight years after his previous tenure ended.
Six Councillors Elected
Alongside Anderson, six councillors were elected to form the next town council. According to the unofficial election results, the new council includes:

As he returns to office, residents can expect an emphasis on collaboration with neighbouring municipalities, maintaining essential services, and building a sustainable path for growth.
Looking Ahead
With a fresh mandate from voters, Mayor Anderson and the newly elected council will guide St. Paul through the next four years. Their decisions will shape the town’s priorities on infrastructure, taxation, recreation, and community development—issues that continue to define small-town Alberta living.
