Despite this however there was fear different parts of the municipal system were working against one another Because of this Bob Rae then the Premier of Ontario appointed Anne Golden to head a GTA task force to govern the region's quality of life competitiveness and governance. During this time the Metro Toronto government advocated to the task force the creation of a new GTA authority which would be made up of 21 of the 30 existing municipalities in the GTA at the time the proposal from Metro Toronto would have resulted in 15 new municipalities the City of Mississauga argued consolidation should only take place in such a way the new municipalities would have a population between 400,000 and 800,000 the Town of Markham had similarly advocated municipal consolidation in York Region although it was opposed to complete consolidation into a single municipality Municipal consolidation faced stiff opposition however from smaller communities such as Ajax Milton and the borough of East York the task force's recommendation to eliminate the Metro Toronto government and consolidate its remaining municipalities into an enlarged City of Toronto was completed in 1997 under Mike Harris' Common Sense Revolution.

He attributed his choice of a maple leaf for the logo to his experiences as a Canadian Army officer and prisoner of war during World War I Viewing the maple leaf as a "badge of courage" and a reminder of home Smythe decided to give the same name to his hockey team in honour of the many Canadian soldiers who wore it. However the team was not the first to use the name a Toronto minor-league baseball team had used the name "Maple Leafs" since 1895 Initial reports were that the team's colours were to be red and white, but the Leafs wore white sweaters with a green maple leaf for their first game on February 17 1927 on September 27 1927 it was announced that the Leafs had changed their colour scheme to blue and white. Although Smythe later stated he chose blue because it represents the Canadian skies and white to represent snow these colours were also used on his gravel and sand business' trucks the colour blue was also a colour historically associated with the City of Toronto the use of blue by top-level Toronto-based sports clubs began with the Argonaut Rowing Club in the 19th century later adopted by their football team the Toronto Argonauts in 1873 Opening of Maple Leaf Gardens (1930s).
