Newmarket, Ontario
Newmarket ( 2021 population: 87,942) is a town and regional seat of the Regional Municipality of York in the Canadian province of Ontario. It is part of Greater Toronto in the Golden Horseshoe region of Southern Ontario. The name stems from the fact that the settlement was a "New Market", in contrast to York as the ''Old Market''.

The province's Official Plan includes growth in the business services and knowledge industries, as wel ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
