The ENTIRE History Of Mississauga, Canada
Discover the complete history of Mississauga, Ontario – from 11,000 years ago to today. This in‑depth history documentary reveals how Canada’s 6th largest city transformed from Indigenous hunting grounds and small colonial townships into a massive suburban metropolis in just a few decades. Explore the story of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, the fur trade era along Lake Ontario, and the early European settlements that became Port Credit, Streetsville, and Toronto Township. See how railroads, highways, and suburban development turned farmland into subdivisions, shopping centres, and high‑rise condos that define modern Mississauga. We cover the 1837 Rebellion, the creation of the City of Mississauga in 1974, and the legendary 36‑year reign of Mayor Hazel McCallion (“Hurricane Hazel”). Relive the 1979 Mississauga train derailment that caused the largest peacetime evacuation in North American history, forcing 250,000 residents from their homes overnight.
