Heath graduated from Carleton University with a Bachelor of Journalism degree.^[1] While at Carleton, he was involved in student politics; most notably getting disqualified from a Carleton University Students' Association election. He also served as co-chair of the Ontario New Democratic Youth in the early 1990s.

Following Ed Broadbent's announcement that he would not be running in the next federal election, Heath contested the NDP's nomination to succeed him in Ottawa Centre but was defeated at the June 22, 2005, nomination meeting by Paul Dewar.

In February 2007 his book was published, Dead Centre: Hope, Possibility, and Unity for Canadian Progressives.^[3]
