The Brampton Times

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Brampton Times is a newspaper that was published in Brampton, Ontario, Canada until the early 1990s, when The Brampton Guardian’s free distribution eroded the Times subscription base.

Judi McLeod worked for the Times as a city-hall reporter; her 1983 firing by the paper was controversial.[1][2] The Ontario Federation of Labour protested on McLeod's behalf against what they called political intervention.[2][3][4][5]
