We Need Neethan

Neethan Shan is a champion for Scarborough and proudly serves as the City Councillor for Scarborough-Rouge Park.

His commitment to the community began as a youth worker in Malvern before serving as a Toronto District School Board Trustee, Chair of the Toronto District School Board, and now City Councillor. Throughout his public service, Neethan has championed the investments that matter most to residents—better transit, safer neighbourhoods, quality parks and recreation, and stronger local communities.

In just his first 10 months as City Councillor, Neethan has delivered results by advancing $48.4 million in capital projects across the ward, connecting with more than 60,000 residents, upgrading parks and recreation facilities throughout Scarborough-Rouge Park, and implementing traffic calming measures to make neighbourhood streets safer for families.

At City Hall, Neethan serves on the Executive Committee, Scarborough Community Council, the Economic and Community Development Committee, the Toronto Hydro Board, the Toronto Zoo Board, and the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, where he continues to be a strong voice for Scarborough.

Neethan and his wife, Thadsha, are raising their two sons in Scarborough. As a husband, father, and lifelong community advocate, he remains committed to championing Scarborough and delivering results for the families who call it home.
