Dear Ward43 Residents,<\/span><\/p>\n

I am reaching out to residents to contact Mitzie Hunter M.P.P. to ask for immediate action be taken for a Scarborough East Job Skills Training Centre\/Community Hub. \u00a0With the school closure of Robert L. Borden BTI at 200 Poplar Road an excellent opportunity to open a Job Skills Training Centre\/Community Hub is long overdue. \u00a0The province government needs to act now to ensure the site is not sold to a developer. \u00a0<\/span>We need youth employment not 200 \u2013 300 townhouses.<\/b><\/p>\n

The unemployment rate in Scarborough East stands at 12.7%, in sharp contrast to the City of Toronto’s current unemployment rate of 7.5%. \u00a0The Province needs to act now to help Scarborough residents, especially our youth meet their potential by ensuring they have training to find sustainable full-time jobs. <\/span><\/p>\n

Please contact the Honourable Mitzie Hunter M.P.P. to voice your support and tell her to halt any sale of this property. The priority is to build a Scarborough Job Skills Training Centre\/Community Hub. Please Email M.P.P. Hunter at: <\/span>mhunter.mpp.co@liberal.ola.org<\/span><\/a> or call Tel: (416) 281-2787. \u00a0Please copy me on your correspondence <\/span>Councillor_Ainslie@toronto.ca<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 2011 Census Canada statistics reports that 50% of residents in eastern Scarborough only have a post-secondary education. This further indicates access to better job opportunities are badly needed. \u00a0A Job Skills Training Centre\/Community Hub would help residents have the services required to see the Neighbourhood Improvement Area designations removed once and for all\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

All My Best,<\/span><\/p>\n
