Talk:Greater Montreal

message: against split
If split, the title of both articles should be in English, not French.  This is the English Wikipedia. -- Beland 22:22, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Typically an article on the metropolitan community would talk about politics and government, while one on the CMA would talk about statistics and so on. Rather different subjects. I can't really imagine a detailed discussion of the powers of the metropolitan community, its relations with constituent municipalities, etc., going on in an article called, vaguely, "Greater Montreal Area". Joeldl (talk) 11:06, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

text: I think that if the Montreal Metropolitan Community were just a territory, perhaps the two notions would be close enough to be on the same page. But it is also a political body. For example, New York City Council has an article separate from New York City, despite the fact that the territory of the council is exactly the city. If the objection is that there currently isn't enough information on the CMM to deserve a separate page, I might be persuaded to agree with that. But if more information on the politics and government of the CMM is introduced (such as appointment procedures, powers, institutional history, etc.), wouldn't you agree that in future that should be treated in its own article, like New York City Council? There's just something wrong about discussing a body created by government legislation (the Act respecting the Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal ) in an article called Greater Montreal Area.Joeldl (talk) 03:56, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Absolutely.  We are far from that now, however.  But any discussion here is without prejudice to anyone who wanted to significantly expand the article and then propose a split.  BTW, it's not that I don't think there is much to say about the CMM -- it's just that I don't think there is much to say about the CMA.  Skeezix1000 (talk) 20:17, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

message: This article should be expanded, the Toronto equivalent article Greater Toronto Area can give suggestions on how to make this one better. 70.51.10.188 (talk) 11:57, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is already part of the article, however when I looked at the newspaper this morning, it appears that a lot of people are displeased with either hte logo or its price tag. Someone even suggested that, if you turn it upside down, it could be sold to the city of Winnipeg. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 16:42, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Do the Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal and the Agglomération de Montréal share the same boundaries and include the same local municipalities?  Do these two each have a council?  That would seem like a duplication.  Lastly, if the answer is "yes" to the first question, that means that these two entities are coterminous with the Region of Montreal?  It seems that the Agglomération de Montréal may serve in the place of administrative Region of Montreal.  I'm just trying to get an idea as to how Montreal and Quebec City are structured.  It would seem that apart from the central local municipalities, that each city's regional government is also a territory equivalent to both an RCM and an Administrative Region.  I guess in that case the Agglomération de Montréal might be the only level above Montreal aside from the provincial government. --Criticalthinker (talk) 00:47, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Can anyone answer this?  Are the Urban Agglomeration and the Metropolitan Commmunity conterminous?  How do their competencies/roles differ from one another if that is the case?  In other words, what does each oversee that the other doesn't in terms of regional services? --Criticalthinker (talk) 09:24, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

replies: text: Either renamed or rewritten. As  I think points out above, this article conflates the Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal with the Census metropolitan area of Montréal. There's also overlap with the Urban agglomeration of Montreal. I propose renaming it (or rather moving the content to the redirected Montreal Metropolitan Community) and updating the content so that the article focuses on the MMC. The census area can of course still be discussed in the demographics section but should have less prominence. --Cornellier (talk) 20:44, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
