Charlie Clark is a Canadian politician, who was elected Mayor of Saskatoon in the Saskatchewan municipal elections, 2016.

Prior to his election to the mayoralty, Clark served on Saskatoon City Council for ten years as councillor for Ward 6, and worked for the non-profit Core Neighbourhood Development Council and Quint Development Corporation as a mediator. He defeated incumbent mayor Don Atchison after a tight race during which Atchison maintained a narrow lead in public opinion polling, while both Clark and third-place finisher Kelley Moore traded the second-place position, throughout the campaign. He received a late-campaign endorsement from comedian and actor Zach Galifianakis, whose wife is Clark's cousin.
