Mark Wasyliw is a Canadian politician who was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba in the 2019 Manitoba general election.[1] He represents the electoral district of Fort Garry.

After having been elected as a member of the New Democratic Party of Manitoba, on September 16, 2024, Wasyliw was removed from the NDP's provincial caucus following revelations that his legal partner was a defence lawyer for former Winnipeg-based businessman and convicted sex offender Peter Nygård. The party criticized his judgment.[2][3][4] Wasyliw criticized Premier Wab Kinew as a "toxic and dysfunctional" leader and a "bully" in response, and said he would continue to serve as an independent MLA.[2][5]
