Strategic Pillar for Change -
Ensuring Youth, Older Adults &
New Immigrants Thrive
Direction
Our Future Mississauga is a city where people can
spend their entire lives - where teenagers want to
be, where young professionals choose to locate, where
immigrants are welcomed and their cultures become
a visible part of the city's fabric; and where people
can age in place gracefully.
Principle
Mississauga is a city that thrives on its social
and cultural diversity.
Strategic Goals
Ensure Affordability & Accessibility -
to provide a range of affordable and accessible housing,
transit and service options.
Support Aging in Place -

tenures in each neighbourhood.
Attract and Retain Youth -

artistic destinations and expression.
Attract Post-Secondary Institutions -

learning, with a range of post-secondary educational

Nurture Diverse Cultures -
to provide more cultural exchange, understanding and
opportunity for small-scale entrepreneurialism.
Integrate Places of Religious Assembly -

diversity can become reflected in the physical form
of the city.
