My name is Sandeep Srivastava and I am running to be your city councillor. I have been a resident of Scarborough for well over three decades and I simply could not be prouder of our vibrant community, the wonderful people, and our diversity.

I came to Toronto as a teenager with a dream for better education and a better future for my family, and Scarborough has helped me do that.

Thanks to my local upbringing, I procured a postgraduate in Computer Science and Project Management Professional. I am a public servant where I have been managing public projects/programs/services and helping your Communities, Families, Youth, Seniors across Toronto.

I can put these skills to work for you. I have benefited enormously from being part of the community that celebrates the diversity of its residents, creates opportunities for economic and social prosperity, and appreciates newcomers’ families and seniors alike, regardless of their race or religion. Not only is it my duty, but it is also my privilege to give back to the community that has given me so much.

For the past 25 years, I have worked directly with residents, stakeholders, and local politicians to resolve day-to-day issues that impact our lives in our ward.

I am the only candidate who lives in this ward and the only one who will put Scarborough first. I have gotten to know many of you through my involvement in local projects to resolve your family and community issues.

I face the same problems you do. Who better to represent the residents of our community than another resident? Who better to maintain efficient tax dollar allocation than a taxpayer raising two sons just next door? I want to continue helping your family and growing our community with more services for all ages.

Unlike others, I ran to represent you and your family in previous elections. I am driven to succeed.

I am with you and your community. I am working for you. I believe that by working together, we can make our community an even better place to live, work, and raise a family.

Thank You for Your Vote and Support.
