Under which Act does the municipal level of governance primarily operate?

  1. Broadcasting Act

  2. Economic Development Act

  3. Municipal Act

  4. Property Rights Act

  5. Public Service Act

  6. Transportation Act

The correct answer is: Economic Development Act

The correct answer is the Municipal Act. This legislation serves as the primary framework governing the operations of municipal governments in Ontario. It outlines the powers, responsibilities, and functions of municipalities, enabling them to manage local affairs effectively, including land-use planning, public safety, and local services. The other options refer to specific areas of governance that do not pertain directly to municipal operations. For instance, the Broadcasting Act relates to media and telecommunications, while the Economic Development Act addresses broader economic strategies rather than local governance. The Property Rights Act and the Transportation Act focus on specific legalities and transportation infrastructure, respectively, and the Public Service Act deals with the management of public service employees and their conduct rather than municipal governance. Thus, the Municipal Act is the appropriate legislation that directly defines how municipalities operate within the province.
