three government bodies which are the municipal government, the provincial government, and
the federal government work in conjunction to serve the needs of each government body to serve

municipalities? This essay will discuss why it is beneficial for municipalities to run on a multi-
level government system, as well as why it may not be beneficial to have a multi-level
governance system.

is required to run a multi-level government system.
Municipal politics in Canada has a relatively low profile (Steytler, N. 2009). We can see
