Discussions

Okay ... yesterday the thought occurred to me that lately ebrandon has been filled with A LOT of belly aching and moaning about the short comings of Brandon ... from the drivers (I'm guilty of this) to the garbage bins to the City Council ... we've had threads that offer very little positive about life in Brandon ... and there is more to Brandon than the negative.  
 
I'm a Brandon-transplant, and I've come to like Brandon warts and all ... So, in honour of Canada Day on Wednesday, and the celebration of being a Canuck, I would like to propose a discussion about the things in Brandon that we value and appreciate and YES DAMMIT - LIKE !!!  
 
I'll begin with some of the things about Brandon that I like:  
 
- the Riverbank Discovery Centre and the various trails and paths  
 
- the SUN - with THOUSANDS of HOURS of sunshine throughout the year how can you complain ??  
 
- the COOLEST looking Police Cars around - those new black and whites are just beautiful - the supervisor truck is awesome !! (Nice Choice Chief Atkinson)  
 
- Forbidden Flavours coffee shoppes - good product, good service and great settings  
 
- the multi-cultural mosaic that has people from every corner of the world gathering in our city  
 
I have more ... but for now - that's a start ...  
 
What DO YOU celebrate about Brandon???
