“We met Paul when he was organizing the West Scarborough Community Action. He is a passionate community activist who untiringly pursues the betterment of his community. Ward 35 needs someone like Paul who will strongly advocate and represent the interests of the West Scarborough community: more good jobs, more frequent bus service, lower fares, more after-school programs and much more.”

“I’ve known Paul to be an energetic, dedicated activist in Scarborough. He has bright ideas, integrity, and most importantly, he is willing to listen to you and the community about the changes that we need. As City Councillor, Paul will be a clear voice for the working people in Scarborough, and he’ll work with other City Councillors to make this happen, because Paul is a team player.
He understands we need public transit now, not ten to twenty years from now. Paul understands that young people need full-time employment. He has been speaking with organized labour on how to assist young people who want to enter the trades. I grew up in Ward 35, and I know that the ward can become a vibrant community with Paul as your Councillor.”

Paul Bocking (পল বকিং) হছে একজন স্কুল টিচার এবং ৩৫ নং ওয়ার্ড এর ভালো বাসিন্দা । সে উদ্যোগী, সাহসী এবং ইমিগ্রেনটদের প্রতি তার দৃষ্টি সতিই প্রশংসনীয়। আমি দেখেছি তাকে, প্রতি ঘরে ঘরে সবার সাথে কথা বলার তার আপ্রাণ চেষ্টা। সে ৩৫ ওয়ার্ড এর কল্যানের জন্য প্রতিজ্ঞাবদ্ধ । সে বর্তমানে পিএইচডি ডিগ্রী সম্পাদনের পথে আছে। আমি তার সাফল্য কামনা করি।

“There’s a strong slate of people running for council this year. Among non-incumbents, I’d have few second thoughts about voting for Paul Bocking (Ward 35).”
