A Wolf in the Suburbs @ Palm Springs International Film Festival

Welcome to Mississauga where lawns are clipped, neighbors are watchful and no blade of grass dares misbehave. Except at Wolf Ruck’s place. His lawn grows wild, and so does the trouble.

UPDATE: City of Mississauga By-law 125-2017 is REPEALED

HALLELUJAH !!! Just in time for Resurrection Sunday !!! THANK YOU to all who supported the Cause !!!

CITY OF MISSISSAUGA CORPORATE REPORT dated April 8, 2028
“In response to the Court’s decision and to align the by-law with practices that help ensure human health and safety while restoring enforceable standards, staff recommended repealing the Weed and Grass Control By-law and replacing it with a new Turfgrass and Prohibited Plant Species By-law (the “new By-law”).

On April 10, 2026, Council adopted the recommendations, repealed By-law 125-2017 and resolved to draft the new by-law.

The proposed new By-law is intentionally limited in scope and is not a comprehensive redesign of property maintenance regulations. It removes terminology and provisions that are no longer defensible and is designed to address deficiencies by clearly defining what is regulated and why, restricting regulation to circumstances where municipal intervention is necessary to protect human health and safety.

The following recommendations were made in consultation with Forestry, comparable jurisdictions, and a panel of subject matter experts, including academic and research professionals, specializing in relevant disciplines such as conservation biology, ecology, invasive species management, and urban landscape practices.”

NOTE: Stay tuned for the Appeal respecting Costs and Damages COA-26-CV-0362.
