Government services in Toronto!
License plates are a provincial service. As you can see in both pictures, there are license plates from two provinces. This proves that the provincial government issued those license plates because the license plates where from different provinces and not cities or Canada.

A TTC bus
TTC is municipal because it is only inside our city since TTC stands for Toronto Transit Commission. Why would the premier or the prime minister control something that only existed in Toronto?

Disabled Parking Permit
Permits are done by the Provence of Ontario which makes it provincial because we control our own health laws and permits.
Government services in Toronto!
The sidewalk is a municipal service. This makes sense because if the federal government came in to fix and build sidewalks, it would take away from their valuable time that they could use to pass bills or decide if they will help with the Arab spring! Also, the municipal government is closer, therefor, making it more efficient to just have to city deal with it. Another reason why it makes sense is that it is a problem in the city, so, the city should deal with it!

These garbage bags are put on the road for the city garbage truck to pick it up. This is a municipal service because the city of Toronto pays for the garbage truck to pick the bags up and dispose of them.
Green bin
The green bin is a municipal service, we know this because it has the city hall printed on it, also I says Toronto. On it,it also has a yellow sticker that says city of Toronto.

Stop sign
A stop sign is controlled by the municipal level of government because only the person who governs Toronto should control our traffic. If Stephen Harper in Ottawa controlled our traffic signs then they wouldn't know what to do for our traffic signs in particular because he doesn't live here.

Stop Sign
Stop signs are paid for by the Provence because they take care of all the roads. Stop signs are provincial work.

Garbage collection
Garbage collection is handled by the city of Toronto. This is the municipal level of government. One way we can tell is that the city logo is printed on all of the garbage cans.
