A city is a subtype of municipalities in the Canadian province of Ontario. A city can have the municipal status of either a single-tier or lower-tier municipality. Prior to 2003, Ontario had minimum population thresholds of 15,000 and 25,000 for city status. Minimum population thresholds are no longer necessary for a municipality to brand itself as a city.

Ontario has 52 cities, [1] which together had in 2016 a cumulative population of 9,900,179 and average population of 190,388. [2] The most and least populous are Toronto and Dryden, with 2,794,356 and 7,749 residents, respectively. [2] Ontario's newest city is Richmond Hill, whose council voted to change from a town to a city on March 26, 2019. [3] Previous to that, Markham changed from a town to a city on July 1, 2012. [4]

History

Under the former Municipal Act, 1990, a city was both an urban and a local municipality. [5] Under that act, the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) could change the status of a village or town, upon its request, to a city if it had a population of 15,000 or more. [5] The OMB could also incorporate a township as a city under the same conditions with the exception that the population requirements was 25,000 or more. [5] In either event, if located within a county, authorization by the Minister of Municipal Affairs was also required. [5]

In the transition to the Municipal Act, 2001, conventional municipal statuses and their associated population threshold requirements were abandoned. On December 31, 2002, every city that: [6]

  • "existed and formed part of a county, a regional or district municipality or the County of Oxford for municipal purposes" became a lower-tier municipality yet retained its name as a city; and
  • "existed and did not form part of a county, a regional or district municipality or the County of Oxford for municipal purposes" became a single-tier municipality yet retained its name as a city.

The current legislation also provides lower- and single-tier municipalities with the authority to name themselves as "cities", or other former conventional municipal status types such as "towns", "villages" or "townships", or generically as "municipalities". [7]
