Description: "Canada's municipalities have undergone significant reform since 1990, from amalgamation and de-amalgamation to redefinition of the power relationships between municipalities and higher levels of government. In Municipal Reform in Canada 13 contributors offer detailed analyses of the purposes, processes, politics and outcomes of these initiatives in every province and territory. The result is an invaluable resource both for students of municipal governance and for participants in the public and private sectors alike."--Jacket.
