List of people from Brampton

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of people from Brampton, Ontario, Canada.

Note that this list largely does not include players from the Brampton Beast ECHL hockey team. Also note included are people who were post-secondary students who didn't live locally before or after, namely Kent Monkman[1] and Patrick McKenna.[2]

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.
