UPDATE: Ontario introduced a bill Thursday to break up Peel Region as of Jan. 1, 2025, though the mechanics of removing the upper-tier level of government are set to be sorted out later.
The Canadian PressTORONTO – Ontario introduced a bill Thursday to break up Peel Region as of Jan. 1, 2025, though the mechanics of removing the upper-tier level of government are set to be sorted out later.
The goal of the board will be to ensure an “amicable and fair” dissolution process, government officials say, and one of its functions will be to oversee the municipalities’ financial decisions. The mayors of both Mississauga and Brampton have said they believe their taxpayers have funded growth or infrastructure in the other municipality, and a battle over finances in the separation is likely.
Mississauga Mayor Bonnie Crombie has said independence would save her municipality $1 billion over 10 years and make it more efficient.
