The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.
The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.
We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.
Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.
This is embarrassing for Mississauga. The City needs to rectify this now as this housing is much needed in our community.
Supportive housing project halted by the city bc there isn't enough parking
Residents are low-income & few have cars
This NONPROFIT builder is forced to offer the city $250K for 'Payment in Lieu' of parking to get the project moving again
It's parking over ppl in #Mississauga

Happy Mississauga Votes day! This is imp. because a) Mississauga is the 3rd largest city in Ontario (6th in Canada) and b) this is the city's 3rd new mayor in 50 years (that's how old the city is) because of the reign of Hazel McCallion

It’s clear there’s an identity crisis playing out among property owners who do not understand—or refuse to accept—that their assets confer upon them a status that makes Canadians squirm: rich. @michellecyca explores:

BREAKING: #Mississauga Mayor @BonnieCrombie will use her strong-mayor powers to override council's vote last week that ended with a motion supporting 4-plexes failing to pass. Wording of the override below. She tells me she has spoken with @SeanFraserMP.
NEW: In the fallout of #Mississauga council not passing a motion showing support for 4-plex homes, the city has been denied housing funding from the federal government, believed to be $120M. I hear this letter from @SeanFraserMP was sent to council around 5 p.m. #Missipoli

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis wrote letters in support of Danny Masterson, who ended up being sentenced to 30 years in prison for raping two women.
Ashton reportedly called him a ‘role model’ while Mila commented on his ‘exceptional character.’

The thing to remember about John Tory is that his actual policies were terrible and his approach to governing did massive damage to Toronto in ways that will be felt for many years.
Whoever the next mayor is, they will be right to lay blame on the situation Tory left them.
