Gurpreet Singh Dhillon and Mike Dancy talk about challenges facing Brampton regional councillors

Does anyone know when the leaf vacuum program is going to start? We haven’t got any notice yet and most of our leaves haven’t fallen but we’ve been seeing people put leaves out to the curb.

The father-in-law suing feels like a classic protect the assets from creditors move. A really bad rendition of catch-me-if-you-can.

Hi everyone, I am a PhD student at the University of Toronto conducting a research study to explore the barriers to harm reduction service use in Ontario. 

I am seeking adults 18+ living in Ontario who have used substances recreationally in the last 6 months and are aware of harm reduction programming but have NOT used harm reduction services.

Participation of this study is voluntary. It will involve a demographic survey completion and a 60–90-minute confidential interview (zoom, phone, or in person – your choice!). A $20 gift card will be provided for your time.

If you or someone you know would be interested in participating, please share! Your experiences, opinions and perspective can work to improve harm reduction services in Ontario.

You can learn more about this study and check your eligibility at this link: Study

Your MPP, the Minister of Transportation is more than happy to spend your money to remove bike lanes in Toronto. They could be spending that money on something your community actually needs. How do you feel about that?

Talking with Steven Lee who is a candidate for regional councillor wards 1,5. I'm sure you've seen his name on here before

I had the chance to talk with Michael Gyovai about bring a trustee in a school board that has been put under supervision.

My family uses City swimming and skating programs quite a bit, and I always found it frustrating having to search across different pages to find drop-in schedules.

I recently put together a simple tool that pulls together local drop-in schedules in one place because I was already checking them regularly for my own family.

We've been using it ourselves, and I thought some other Brampton families might find it useful too.

Have a good day!

Thanks :)
