Leigh Paulseth
Ajax
Leigh Paulseth is a passionate environmentalist who is committed to community-based solutions. Having moved to Ajax in 2019, she is putting down roots in her community and committed to working towards a sustainable and just future here.
As a scientist, Leigh understands that we only have a few years to drastically change the trajectory of our warming climate. As an environmental activist, she also knows the power of community activism in creating change. The Green Party is leading this change with sound science, economic and social policies that can create a just transition to a sustainable future for everyone.
With an educational background in science, Leigh completed graduate work in environmental management in Nova Scotia. Having grown up in Scarborough, she returned to Ontario in 2012 to work in the environmental non-profit sphere, including Rouge Park. In 2016 her career shifted towards science communication and coordinating programs to support underrepresented voices in the sciences. This has included managing Soapbox Science Toronto for the past 8 years, which supports women and non-binary people in the sciences.
Leigh is a strong environmental advocate. She has been involved in campaigns to stop the development of pipelines in Southern Ontario and protect natural areas like the Rouge Park for future generations. Since moving to Ajax, she has joined the Board of Thickson’s Woods Land Trust, and successfully supported efforts to resist provincial Ministerial Zoning Orders (MZO) and protect the Greenbelt.
Leigh is married to a wonderful partner and is the proud mom to a lively 2-year-old. The family enjoys exploring the beautiful neighbourhoods and natural areas of Ajax with their dog.
