Few cities in Ontario have a history as closely tied to the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation as Mississauga. The city takes its name from the Anishinaabe people whose territory once extended along the north shore of Lake Ontario. Incorporated as a city in 1974, Mississauga has grown into a major urban centre west of Toronto, with a dense business district around Square One and the Civic Centre. Its southern edge meets Lake Ontario, while the Credit River reaches the lake at Port Credit, a waterfront district with a marina and parks.

Built around the Great Lakes–St. Lawrence water system, Ontario grew into Canada’s most populous province. Its vast northern interior lies on the Canadian Shield, a terrain of exposed rock, boreal forest and innumerable lakes, while the south concentrates most cities and farms along the Great Lakes. Lake Superior, Lake Huron, Lake Erie and Lake Ontario give the province an exceptional freshwater horizon; Niagara Falls is its best-known natural landmark. Toronto, Ontario’s largest city, is a major cultural and economic centre, while Algonquin Provincial Park, founded in 1893, represents a long tradition of protected wilderness.
