Chinguacousy Township (pronounced /tʃɪŋˈkuːzi/ (
listen)) is
a former municipality and geographic township in Peel
County, Ontario. In 1973, when Peel County became the Regional Municipality of Peel, it was split
in half, with the northern half becoming part of the town of Caledon, and
the southern half, along with the township of Toronto Gore, joining
the town of Brampton.
The name lives on in Brampton in Chinguacousy Park, Chinguacousy Road, and Chinguacousy Secondary School, among other things.
