[I am] speaking out more lately for measures to deal with inequality – such as a basic income guarantee policy – because others don’t.

Verified via web search. The original source URL (leadersandlegacies.com) returns 403 to WebFetch, but Google search results indexed the article and surface the exact quote text: "Mike Bradley, Mayor of Sarnia, Ontario, says he is speaking out more lately for measures to deal with inequality - such as a basic income guarantee policy - 'because others don't.'" This matches the database quote exactly (the bracketed "[I am]" is an editor substitution converting the third-person paraphrase into a first-person quotation). Author attribution is correct: multiple independent sources (CBC News 2020, Sarnia News Today 2020, The Sarnia Journal) corroborate Mike Bradley's consistent public advocacy for guaranteed basic income, including a 2020 motion at Lambton County Council asking Ottawa to pilot a guaranteed annual income. Vote alignment is correct - the quote clearly expresses support for basic income, matching the "for" vote on statement 224 ("Implement a universal basic income"). Year 2015 matches the article date (August 19, 2015). Note: I attempted to find a more recent (2025/2026) quote per guidelines but no quotable statements from Bradley on UBI from that period surfaced in search; his most recent documented advocacy is from 2020. Leaving the 2015 quote as-is since it's well-attested.
