Mississauga
Toronto's western neighbor
Mississauga is a city in southern Ontario, Canada, located on the western shore of Lake Ontario adjacent to Toronto.
With over 700,000 residents, it's Canada's sixth-largest city and a major suburban center: I grew up in Mississauga but commuted to Toronto for work.
The name comes from the Mississaugas, an Anishinaabe First Nation.
