Sauga and Markham are outside of Toronto municipality and - strictly speaking - are already not on the list. From the shortlist, they do not look like something Amazon is shooting for. They are in Seattle proper, not Kent or Everett.

Yes, I mean US political climate. Ontario Provincial govt created the commission headed by Ed Clark and issued a bunch of statements[1], but I had the impression that above city level they are like whatever.
