In Sarnia, Police Chief Derek Davis is drawing scrutiny for spending taxpayer money on marketing videos to promote a proposed $91 million police headquarters. Freedom of Information records show more than $10,000 was paid for videos meant to boost public support—without going through a public tender. The spending comes as a legal fight escalates between the police board and Mayor Mike Bradley, who cut funding from the ’26 budget, calling it unaffordable. The board argues the new facility is legally required for effective policing.
