No Waterloo is not and will not call itself a part of greater Toronto. It's like saying Baltimore is a part of DC (just a little bit closer), or like saying Philadelphia is a part of New York City (just a little bit farther).

Kitchener-Waterloo is a distinct town, and is a part of the original Canadian "Tech Triangle" - with the demise of RIM/Blackberry, it's lost the lustre but there's no way anyone can take seriously bundling Waterloo into the Greater Toronto Area.

Bad example, Baltimore and DC are usually considered part of the same metro area.
