About Hamilton

Hamilton is a port city in the Canadian province of Ontario. Conceived by George Hamilton when he purchased the Durand farm shortly after the War of 1812 the town of Hamilton has become the centre of a densely populated and industrialized region at the west end of Lake Ontario known as the Golden Horseshoe. The amalgamation of the city with the townships of Hamilton-Wentworth Regional Municipality in 2001 to form the new City of Hamilton, increased the population within its jurisdiction from 331,121 to 490,268 people, known as Hamiltonians. Since 1981, its metropolitan area has been the ninth largest in Canada and the third largest in Ontario.

Traditionally, the local economy has been led by the steel and heavy manufacturing industries. Within the last decade, there has been a shift towards the service sector, like health and sciences including the Hamilton Health Sciences which employs nearly 10,000 staff and serves approximately 2.2 million people in Central South and Central West Ontario. The Hamilton Airport is the busiest air cargo hub and fastest growing airport in Canada. Recent construction in Hamilton includes the research campus McMaster Innovation Park, on land formerly belonging to the steel company Camco.

Hamilton is home to the Royal Botanical Gardens, the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum, the Bruce Trail, McMaster University and several colleges. The Canadian Football League’s Hamilton Tiger-Cats play at Ivor Wynne Stadium, close to the Canadian Football Hall of Fame. Partly because of its diverse locations, numerous TV and film productions have been filmed in Hamilton regulated by the Hamilton Film Liaison Office. A growing arts and culture sector has garnered media attention in a 2006 Globe and Mail news article, entitled “Go West, Young Artist,” focused on the growing art scene in Hamilton which included art galleries, recording studios and centres devoted to acting and independent film production.
