Sure, northern Ontario could be its own territory, if it'd help alleviate some of the really nasty service-delivery problems and logistical issues surrounding too much space with too few people in it.

I'm personally more in favour of turning Toronto into its own city-province, albeit not exactly with the same clout as the rest of the provinces, because Toronto already swings too much weight as it is. That would essentially cut Toronto loose from the rest of Ontario and let non-Torontonians of all stripes have more of a say about what goes on in the province. I love you guys, but contrary to popular (Torontonian) belief, you're not the centre of the universe (nor do you outnumber the rest of us, even if we spot you the entire GTA).

I have heard people commute to Toronto from as far away as Hamilton so should every part of Ontario that is within that range be part of the province of Toronto.

How would you define Toronto? The GTA is EVER-expanding.
