flag A Brantford businessman claims the city retaliated against him after a defamation win by denying his no-cost IT cabling offer, which the city denies.

flag Brantford businessman Brian Manese, whose company won a 2019 defamation lawsuit against the city, says he hasn’t received city contracts since, alleging retaliation after reporting a fire code violation. flag He claims the city rejected his no-cost offer to install IT cabling for the new animal shelter, citing improper motives, including defamatory statements and excluding Belden cable from specifications. flag The city denies retaliation, stating procurement is handled through transparent, competitive processes via the Kinetic Group Purchasing Organization, with all vendors, including Manese’s company, having equal access to opportunities. flag Belden cable remains available through the GPO, and large projects are awarded through requests for proposals to general contractors.
