For more than two decades, Faytene Grasseschi has been actively involved in political life at every level––nominations, leadership races, serving on riding boards, attending policy conventions, speaking to Parliamentary committees and working in general elections across federal, provincial, and municipal arenas. She has also sought political office three times––winning once in a nomination race and coming remarkably close to victory in the other two after leading strong campaigns that earned widespread respect.
Nationally, she has led issue campaigns which have inspired Canadians to be a voice opposing human trafficking, defending parental rights, lowering taxes, affirming the dignity of all human life, combating anti-Semitism, protecting charitable status for faith-based organizations, and protecting women from violence. She regularly appears on national media platforms and has led hundreds of young Canadians on leadership delegations to Parliament to meet with Members of Parliament and Senators. She is widely respected as one of Canada’s leading voices in grassroots civic engagement, particularly in the faith community.
Faytene s happily married to Robert, and together they have two children.
