## Background (Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0, shortened)

Bronte (BRON-tee) is the community that makes up much of the west end of Oakville, in Ontario, Canada. Twelve Mile Creek (known informally as Bronte Creek) flows through the middle of town and empties into Lake Ontario. Main roads include Bronte Road (north-south), Lakeshore Road West (east-west, parallel to Lake Ontario) and Rebecca Street (east-west). Streets in the business section include Lakeshore, Jones, Marine, and Ontario Street.  Bronte is also accessed via a superhighway (the Queen Elizabeth Way) located to the north of the former village.
