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.

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!

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.
