Get engaged, Mississauga: We want to hear from you

We invite you to share your thoughts on projects that will shape Mississauga's future.

City services | March 10, 2025

Community engagement is important to us. We want to hear your ideas and opinions on the projects that are transforming Mississauga. There are many ways to get involved and work together to plan and shape Mississauga’s future.

Below is a list of current ongoing engagements:

Regulating protests near places of worship in Mississauga

The City is considering a new by-law to regulate protests near places of worship in Mississauga for safety. We seek community feedback on how to address related concerns. While the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms allows peaceful assembly, this must be balanced with the right to worship safely.

Starting in March, the City will conduct public engagement and consultations. Residents can provide input through a survey from March 17 to April 8 on the City’s project webpage. Focused consultations will also occur with community members – like faith-based leaders and community groups.

Fireworks By-law review

The City is seeking your opinions on the use of fireworks in Mississauga. Currently, fireworks without permit can be used at home on private property from dusk until 11 p.m. on Lunar New Year, Victoria Day, Canada Day and Diwali, and until 1 a.m. on New Year’s Day. You must apply for a permit from the City to use fireworks in a public street or park, or at home on your private property on any day other than these designated holidays.

Until March 31, you can participate in an online survey to share your experiences and opinions regarding fireworks. Feedback will help shape recommendations for potential by-law changes.

For more information and to take the survey, visit yoursay.mississauga.ca/fireworks.

Renoviction By-law development

The City is seeking feedback from tenants, landlords and community members to develop a proposed by-law on renovictions. An unlawful renoviction happens when landlords evict tenants to complete renovations and fail to follow the N13 process under the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA). Landlords may be unclear or unaware that they must follow the N13 notice process and have a building permit from the City if they wish a unit to be vacated to complete a renovation. In addition, tenants may not know or understand their rights, including their right to secure a return after renovations are complete.

Community members can participate by:

  1. Attending a virtual meeting on April 9 at 6 p.m. (registration required).
  2. Completing an online survey until April 16.
  3. Filling out the survey in person at local libraries with staff assistance.
