Background
Saini’s political leanings were formed growing up in a Liberal household in Mississauga in the 1970s and 1980s, and later as a student at the University of Toronto, where he completed a bachelor of science before going on to complete a bachelor of science in pharmacy at Boston's Northeastern University.

He is a past president and past vice-president of the Kitchener Center Federal Liberal Association, a Rotarian, and has served as a member of the Canadian International Council, Waterloo.
