Sudbury summary
Greater Sudbury (2006 census population 157,857) is a city in Northern Ontario, Canada. Greater Sudbury was created in 2001 by amalgamating the cities and
towns of the former Regional Municipality of Sudbury, along with several previously unincorporated geographic townships.
It is the largest city in Northern Ontario in population, and the 24th largest metropolitan area in Canada. In land area, it is now the largest city in
Ontario, the seventh largest municipality in Canada, and the largest municipality in English Canada legally designated as a city.
Greater Sudbury is one of only five cities in Ontario — the others are Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton and Kawartha Lakes — which constitute their own independent
census divisions, and are not part of any district, county or regional municipality.
It is also the only city in Ontario which has two official names — its name in French is Grand-Sudbury. Unlike designations such as Greater Toronto or Greater
Montreal, the name "Greater Sudbury" refers to a single city, not a conurbation of independent municipalities. However, the name Sudbury, without its official
modifiers, is still the more common name for the city in everyday usage.

The city's Census Metropolitan Area consists of the city proper and the First Nations reserves of Whitefish Lake and Wanapitei, and had a population of 158,258
in the 2006 census. Informally, some residents of the area may also consider the metropolitan area to include the towns of Markstay-Warren, St.-Charles and
French River, a region commonly known as Sudbury East.
Sudbury was one of the first Canadian cities to plan and implement its own digital telecommunications strategy. Beginning in 1996, the city began constructing a
fibre optic network which saw over 400 kilometres of cable laid down to serve the city's business and citizen populations. In November 2005, the city was named
one of the world's "Smart 21 Communities" by the Intelligent Community Forum, a worldwide project to honour technological innovation. Other named cities included
Waterloo, Ottawa, Philadelphia, Dubai, Seoul, London, Manchester and Melbourne.
