Change Kitchener's name back to Berlin?

The ball on amalgamation is and should remain, imo, in Waterloo's court.  Nothing good could come of trying to pressure the city for something it's residents have so recently indicated they are not willing to contemplate.

I do think that it makes such logical sense that the province should make it happen. A majority of the new municipality's inhabitants would be in favour of the new boundaries, which is not always the case right after such a change.

But that's not likely with the current regime. If we get a new provincial government one day who is keen on "eliminating duplication of services" by merging municipalities, maybe it would happen. Otherwise, it will be up to Waterloo to come to it, and it will be a long wait.
