from Toronto and Hamilton into the area might enough to let stand as a riding on its own and perhaps Hills to combine with Mdtaa Or leave Hills Including Aclon intact and let it Join In a new riding called Hills Brampton leaving Oak ville and Millon together Or as floss Milne suggested It might be more add the town of Cnledon to the city of Brampton than would be to add part of Hilts The general
