The Brampton main, who’s operating for reelection following his failed Conservative Occasion of Canada (CPC) management bid, says he solely entered the federal race as a result of he “did not need to see the Trumpification of the proper wing” in Canada.

Brown’s marketing campaign for CPC chief was met with combined reactions in Brampton, as 5 metropolis councillors stated the most important had put “private ambitions above the pursuits of taxpayers” and was “utilizing taxpayer-funded Metropolis Corridor employees to work on his federal marketing campaign.”

Brown has repeatedly denied these allegations, which if true would go in opposition to council’s code of conduct.

An already fractured Brampton Metropolis Council has change into much more cut up as a result of fallout from an unlawful movement to pre-appoint a former councillor to a vacant seat on council.
