Liberal incumbents want your votes, again, so why won’t they answer questions about rising crime, housing and other pressing issues facing Brampton residents?

Through it all, voters have to buckle down, think about substance, and figure out what their local candidates stand for, what they are promising to make the lives of constituents better, and what makes them qualified to hold office in Ottawa. 

For Brampton’s four Liberal incumbents a big part of these questions comes down to their track record over the past four years and what they’ve been able to accomplish for Brampton during their time in Ottawa. So far, they appear unwilling to share information that could help local voters make an informed decision at the ballot box.

Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau, currently consumed by a blackface scandal, has been criticized in recent weeks for failing to make himself available to answer questions about key issues facing voters. 

It appears to be a tactic being used by many in the Liberal party, including Brampton’s four incumbents. They have either refused or ignored repeated requests to defend their local record over the past four years and highlight what they promise to do for Brampton if elected again.
