Hall was sentenced to 18 months in prison in 1981 for having sex with girls between 14 and 16 years old, but was pardoned for his crimes in 1994.

At least one of the girls was a member of a community basketball team sponsored by Holy Rosary Cathedral in Regina.

“Should I be elected, I would join the other trustees and do my very best to make sure that every single student has the best education available,” Hall said in a statement Monday.

“I’m very sorry,” he said in an interview with Saskatoon radio station CKOM. “I can’t excuse what I did, but I did it. I don’t know what I was thinking.”

Hall’s son, Robert, said his father’s teaching licence was restored in 1984 and he resumed teaching throughout Saskatchewan until the early 2000s.

“He always told me he needed correcting, and he got corrected,” Robert Hall said.
