Canada's National Observer @nationalobserver.com · 28/09/2026
This morning — following two investigations into Toronto mayoral candidate Brad Bradford's use of an app that rewards supporters for posting AI-generated comments and sharing contacts — Bradford called our reporting "inaccurate." We're now releasing the recording that proves our reporting.

Bradford calls CNO reporting of AI app rewards ‘inaccurate.’ Here’s the recording proving our reporting.
Canada’s National Observer has decided to publish the segment of the Zoom call that corroborates its reporting.

More excellent investigative work. This has major privacy implications. #ToPoli today. Where next? “What Victory App is doing is an aggressive form of data expansion that is not common practice on Canadian campaigns,” said Nat Wilson, CEO of the political campaign agency Point Blank."
Bradford’s supporters were instructed to give the app permission to access all of their phone contacts and mark them one by one according to their level of support for him. They get five in-app coins for each personal contact they submit, and were told this would earn them “rewards.”

The “Neighbours” feature showed the names and full addresses of people who lived near the user’s phone contacts and asked the user if they were also Bradford supporters.

They were also told to correct their contacts' names. “This is what it's going to use to match to the voter list,” said political strategist Hasneet Singh Punia, who was identified on the call as working with the “vendor” that created the Victory App.

This is the stupidest timeline. Whose cause is furthered by this? If people put a fraction of the energy wasted contacting people's workplaces into their elected officials, we could have real change. yourhalifaxnow.ca/lake-america...

Since they're not members of NATO, partner nations would have no duty to intervene when the US invades for the oil and turns it into a territory without rights like Puerto Rico

Every time he opens his mouth or does a tiddy bounce the news cycle is upended for a week. He is a twitch streamer. He holds no office, nor is he running. It's so sad to watch our neighbours swirling the drain
