Controversies

Racist remark In April 2025, Hilbert apologized for falsely describing federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh as a 'terrorist' during a March 25 legislative debate. Hilbert later admitted the comment was inaccurate and inappropriate, withdrawing it amid public backlash and condemnation from the Saskatchewan NDP. Following her remarks, she was stripped of her legislative committee roles but remains in the Saskatchewan Party caucus. Despite public backlash and calls for her removal, Premier Scott Moe limited disciplinary action, while the legislature later passed a bill recognizing April as Sikh Heritage Month.
