Hitachi Rail opens Canadian headquarters in Scarborough

Isaac Callan said on X that Hitachi Rail has officially opened its new Canadian headquarters in Scarborough. A post on Doug Ford’s @fordnation account on X also said its author was in Scarborough for the grand opening.

The same post said Hitachi’s investment in Canada is supporting 1,100 jobs, which it called good-paying, and more than 100 paid internships each year. It said the internships are meant to support the next generation of homegrown Ontario talent. But the post does not say whether the 1,100 jobs are new or already existed, so what the headquarters adds to employment is not known.
