[edit] Rockland is a town

Rockland is a town. Just because it is part of the City of Clarence-Rockland doesn't mean it is just a community. There is more to places than the incorporated ones.

In fact, unincorporated communities are more important than their respective municipalities because a municipality can't exist without a community, but a community can exist without a municipality.

If someone from Toronto was to ask someone from Rockland where they are from, the person from Rockland wouldn't say, "I'm from Clarence-Rockland" (the name of the municipality) they would say "I'm from Rockland" (the name of the community). --216.106.103.82 16:06, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
