Nathaniel Teed was first elected MLA for Saskatoon Meewasin in a 2022 by-election. He is the opposition deputy Whip and the Shadow Minister for Labour.
Nathaniel was born and raised in Saskatoon. He received a Bachelor of Education from the University of Saskatchewan in 2018. Nathaniel worked as an arts and culture fundraiser, an educational assistant and teacher, and ran a small business for 10 years.
Nathaniel has deep roots in Saskatoon and the Saskatchewan New Democratic Party. His grandparents, Genevieve (a social worker) and Loren Teed (an educator and artist), were actively involved in the CCF and the formation of the Saskatchewan New Democratic Party, and they were active on the front lines of the fight for Medicare. Genevieve was one of the founding members of the Saskatoon Community Clinic. Today, he carries forward their legacy.
Nathaniel is the first openly gay MLA in Saskatchewan’s history, and he has spent many hours volunteering with his community through OutSaskatoon. Nathaniel lives in Saskatoon with his partner of 15 years, James, their two dogs and a cat.
