Before entering politics, Warren Steinley reportedly had a career in sales and marketing, including for agricultural companies like Crop Production Services. He was first elected as a Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) for the Saskatchewan Party in 2011, representing the provincial riding of Regina Walsh Acres. He served as an MLA until his election to the House of Commons in 2019.
Key Relationships & Connections

Potential Conflicts of Interest
In late 2019, reports emerged that Steinley was one of several newly elected MPs from Saskatchewan who were eligible to receive a provincial transition allowance for leaving their previous roles as Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs). The situation was criticized by some as inappropriate, as the allowance was intended to help former politicians transition to private life, not to another elected office. Steinley reportedly stated he would consult the provincial conflict of interest commissioner on the matter.
Public Controversies
In 2021, Steinley reportedly faced criticism over a mailout sent to constituents using parliamentary resources. The mailer contained a survey with questions that were described by critics as partisan and leading, particularly in their framing of the federal Liberal government's policies. The incident raised questions about the rules governing the use of taxpayer-funded communications by Members of Parliament.

Every time government goes into a program, it becomes
Mr. Speaker, that is exactly what I said, so I would say to—
Mr. Speaker, it is a pleasure for me to take to my feet today to ask for a more substantive answer to a question I asked in question period about a month ago. finance minister Prime Minister I asked the Liberalif he should be held to his own words. I remember back in 2023 that minister had said he would have grocery prices under control by Thanksgiving 2023. Those are not the only comments we
Mr. Speaker, if my kids gave me that answer when I asked them a question, I would be bitterly disappointed. It is always someone else's fault with these Liberals. It is never their fault. Regarding gasoline prices, they say, “It is not our fault. We took the tax off.” However, there is not a place in the country where the price of gas is lower than it was before. They only went a third of the
Mr. Speaker, I have an honest question for my friend from the NDP. Earlier, we had the member for Winnipeg North laughing about seniors not being able to afford food in one of our members' ridings. He said—
Mr. Speaker, I will go back to the question I had for the member from B.C. I am wondering, how many Canadians in your riding are actually better off than they were five or six years ago? Are there lots of people in your riding saying that things have gotten better, or can you say that they have collectively gotten worse?
