The Christian Heritage Party of Canada today announced the appointment of David Bylsma as National Deputy Leader. National Leader, Rod Taylor, says that he asked Mr. Bylsma to serve with him because of his broad and extensive experience in business and politics and the wisdom he has demonstrated over decades of volunteer service with the Christian Heritage Party. “I’ve personally known Dave Bylsma for 20 years; my respect and appreciation for him as a person and as a spokesperson for the policies of the CHP just continues to grow. I love how he runs his business, I love how he looks after his family and raises his kids. I’m grateful for the many ways he has served his community and our nation, both as a federal candidate and as Councillor and Mayor of the Township of West Lincoln. He has shown courage, integrity and faithfulness and I welcome him to serve with me on the National Board and to help us bring the CHP message of Life, Family and Freedom to our fellow-citizens in this great nation of Canada.”

David Bylsma and his wife, Sylvia, have nine children and eight grandchildren. He has served as a federal CHP candidate eight times. He has served terms both as Ontario President for CHP and National President. He created and operates a local business in West Lincoln, producing high-quality custom cabinet doors.
