SOME BAD AREAS

I am writing to find what the mayor of Brampton has to say about the 
areas around Brampton that are used for drug buys, streetwalkers, 
johns, and who knows what else. There is a certain area of Brampton 
which seems to attract this kind of activity that normal citizens can 
not walk down the street, without been propositioned, honked at, cars 
slowing down to take a look, and the secretive deals that go on at 
the corners of the streets, and behind the apartment buildings.

Phone calls to the police have been fruitless, as you are put on 
hold, or asked to give a history of what you are calling about, right 
down to almost drawing a picture for them. Come on, we are not 
calling the police for a friendly chat, we are calling about a 
problem that is occurring in front of us and in front of our children.

I know the area in which I live we are friendly and quiet people who 
have had enough of the streetwalkers and johns.
