Clarington

Clarington ( 2011 population 84,548) is a lower-tier municipality in the Regional Municipality of Durham in Ontario, Canada. It was incorporated in 1973 as the town of Newcastle with the merging of the town of Bowmanville and the townships of Clarke and Darlington. In 1994, the town was renamed Clarington, a portmanteau of the names of the two former townships. Bowmanville is the largest community in the municipality and is the home of the municipal offices.

Clarington is the eastern end of the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and its census metropolitan area is part of neighbouring Oshawa. Major employers in Clarington include the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station, General Motors Canada, and several medium to large-sized manufacturing businesses. Most residents commute for work in Durham Region or Toronto.

Clarington was a candidate location to host ITER in 2001, but the bid was withdrawn two years later.
