8 years ago when I ran r/Brampton on @Reddit we had prominent Real Estate Salesman Sandy Kennedy take over the community for April Fools.
I went around #Brampton posting messages on his notepads in the community all day.
Classic memories.

Howden Bike Lanes are being ripped out Ford style by #Brampton council, cyclists will be dumped into car lanes for now.
Nimbys rejected compromise to return right turn lanes.
Rowena Santos was the only councillor who stood against this reckless decision

5⃣: We returned to what is basically an ongoing series at this point. Councillors in Brampton appear to travel all over the world on a regular basis.
In this case, they spent $8,000 on chauffeur services during a trip to London. #OnPoli #BramPoli

4⃣ In April we reported on a trip that Brampton councillors took to Dublin to search for investors. FOI docs showed they spent $60,000 over five days.
Later in the year, school boards faced investigations over similar trips. #Onpoli #Brampoli

Many Brampton councillors think cyclists should just use recreational trails. Yet, the city continually fails to clear the trails. Day 4 since the snowstorm and Etobicoke Creek Trail is a disaster

I am so sick of the City of Brampton failing to clear #ActiveTransportation infrastructure to the same standard that they clear the roads

Brampton's consistent winter maintenance fails of active transportation infrastructure during winter is real. Lisa is a 10 year committee member and currently Co-Chair of the Active Transportation Advisory Committee. Her statements in this article are very well informed. #BramPoli
In Brampton, according to the 2024 property tax insert, out of every $100 collected, $17.91 goes to the police.
They are getting a 21% increase for 2025 😡

Many Canadian cities are like this as well. This is Brampton Ontario, bedroom suburb of Toronto. Many of our municipal councillors are fighting density, and any form of transportation, other than motor vehicle

It should be and is about #Brampoli govt's habitual choice to act in a way that raises difficult questions, which reportage merely reflects.
The #brampoli City Hall debate about reportage isn't - & shouldn't be - about freedom of the press, although that freedom is a good thing.
For the first time in #Brampoli Uber discussion, @ChrisSchafer speaks to tech change as justification to review + update laws...
I'm actually on Sprovieri's side on this one. Council's oversight role > lawsuit risk management. #brampoli www.thestar.com/news/city_hall/2015/10/2...
