Federal funding will support watershed, habitat and wetland restoration at Iggy Kaneff Park in the Cooksville neighbourhood.
City services | July 23, 2026
The City of Mississauga is welcoming $453,406 in federal funding through the Government of Canada’s Natural Infrastructure Fund to restore and strengthen the Cooksville Creek watershed. The funding will support restoration work at Iggy Kaneff Park (2180 Camilla Rd.), helping protect one of Mississauga’s largest watersheds while improving green space for residents.
The Iggy Kaneff Park restoration project supports the City’s climate and sustainability goals while making parks more enjoyable for the community.
Over the last decade, natural forest cover within the Cooksville Creek watershed has been reduced to approximately 2.2 per cent (79.1 hectares), limiting the watershed’s ability to manage stormwater and flooding risks. The City will use this funding to restore wetlands and forests by planting 1,050 trees, 6,000 shrubs and 2,000 wetland plants, helping manage stormwater, support wildlife and maintain healthy ecosystems.
The restoration work complements the City’s ongoing expansion and redevelopment of Cooksville Park and Iggy Kaneff Park, helping strengthen the Cooksville Creek corridor while improving parkland for the community. The City is expanding and redeveloping Iggy Kaneff Park as part of broader efforts to address a parkland deficit in the growing Cooksville neighbourhood. The park is also undergoing a redevelopment, where amenities or new features will bring about a new park design.
The project is expected to be completed by December 31, 2028. Learn more at yoursay.mississauga.ca/cooksville-parks
The NIF is a $135 million federal program that supports projects across Canada that build, restore or enhance natural infrastructure using natural or hybrid approaches such as wetlands, urban forests, green roofs, living dykes and bioswales. The fund supports projects that increase climate change resilience, protect biodiversity and provide cleaner air and water, while improving community access to nature.
Funding was available to municipalities, Indigenous organizations and non‑profit organizations, helping communities deliver innovative, nature‑based solutions to complex environmental challenges.
Recognition celebrates City and community efforts to help people stay active.
City services | July 22, 2026
ParticipACTION is a national initiative that encourages people and communities across Canada to be active through recreation, sport and everyday movement.
The ParticipACTION Community Challenge provided an opportunity to showcase the many ways residents can get active in Mississauga while highlighting the City’s continued investments in recreation, sport and healthy living. The initiative aligned closely with the City’s Healthy City Strategy, which supports active living through programs, services and infrastructure designed to improve the health and well-being for all residents.
Earlier this summer, the City encouraged residents to take part in the ParticipACTION Community Challenge and discover new ways to move more throughout June and beyond. This was a practical, inspiring opportunity to remind residents about ways to move more in June and throughout the year. It became a city-wide effort, with residents, community organizations and City staff contributing to the momentum. The City’s campaign generated strong response, with more than 137,000 participants taking part through 48 community organizations and groups. The City also delivered more than 4,600 activities that engaged nearly 122,000 residents throughout June.
The activities included kick-off events and programs that connected residents to free and low-cost opportunities available throughout the summer, including:
Mississauga’s commitment to helping residents stay active is a year-round initiative. Key highlights include:
In 2025, Mississauga was recognized as a national finalist in the ParticipACTION Community Challenge. This year’s designation as Ontario’s Most Active Community reflects the growing involvement of residents, organizations and community partners.
Learn more about recreation and sports programs at mississauga.ca/recreation.
“Mississauga is honoured to be recognized as Ontario’s Most Active Community. This achievement belongs to the residents, community organizations, schools and other groups who embraced the ParticipACTION Community Challenge alongside City programs and staff. They all show that active living is for everyone. Through our Healthy City Strategy, we are creating healthy, active opportunities for residents, including seniors who have increased their memberships at our community centres by the tens of thousands. We are proud to be building a stronger and healthier Mississauga for current and future generations.” – Mayor Carolyn Parrish
“Being named Ontario’s Most Active Community reflects what can be achieved when residents, community organizations, schools, businesses and City staff work toward a common goal. I want to thank the City’s Recreation and Culture staff for their efforts to engage residents and community groups. Throughout June, we saw the power of partnerships and the importance of creating accessible opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to be active, connected and healthy.” – Raj Sheth, Commissioner, Community Services
