- It would be much better to wait for Waterloo to come to its senses and name the newly amalgamated city "Waterloo". Perhaps in time for the bicentennial in 2116.....
Agreed it is time to have a real discussion about joining the two cities however, the name Waterloo is not an acceptable alternative. Waterloo is captured in the Regions name. A unified city requires a separate identity from the name of the Region. As a resident of Kitchener I find it bothersome that everyone outside of our region thinks everything is Waterloo.
Just my two cents worth
