There doesn't seem to be a lot of activity articles, so I just wanted to throw this proposal out there. I know that the "Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area" is a term becoming increasingly used by the government, as opposed to just "Greater Toronto Area". I want to know if that might be a valid enough reason to merge these articles. It seems redundant to have them both separately, and I think I personally add some extra value into this article. Let me know what you guys think. -- Natural RX 02:48, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
Good points. I have retracted the proposal. -- Natural RX 01:27, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Why isn't the Greater Toronto & Hamilton Area defined as the GTA plus the Hamilton census metropolitan area? The Hamilton CMA is the economic area and so it seems to make sense to include all of this area. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.245.233.135 ( talk) 00:26, 19 December 2015 (UTC)
The only area left out of the Greater Hamilton Area would be Grimsby, the rest has been amalgamated into the City of Hamilton. But if you asked most people in Hamilton if Grimsby was part of the Greater Hamilton Area they would certainly answer yes. Probably everyone living in Grimsby would answer yes. Is there a definition other than the Hamilton CMA that has been used? What definition of Greater Hamilton was used? Seems like the CMA definition should be the basis unless a more reliable definition can be provided. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.71.222.121 ( talk) 03:29, 24 December 2015 (UTC)
Using the Hamilton CMA seems to be the logical choice here, and I haven't seen anyone bring forward another accepted definition of the Hamilton Area - and it's been a month since I raised this, a bit more since the topic in general was raised. I'll wait a day, or two, before I make this change in case anyone has anything to add.

Due to increasing housing unaffordability, the GTHA acronymn might eventually stand for "Get The Hell Away"... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.100.122.180 ( talk) 18:17, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
