Elections are an important way for the people of Milton to have their voices heard and help shape the future of our community. They give residents the chance to choose who represents them on Town Council and other levels of government. Municipal elections decide who will be the Mayor, Councillors, and School Board Trustees.
In Canada, there are three levels of government: municipal, provincial, and federal. Municipal governments, like the Town of Milton, manage local services such as roads, public transit, parks, and libraries. The provincial government is responsible for areas like health care, education, and highways, while the federal government handles national matters such as immigration, defense, and foreign policy. To learn more about the responsibilities of each level of government, visit The Legislative Assembly of Ontario.
